The Australian Women's Register

[Red Cross Archives series reference: V11] Comprises index cards detailing Junior Red Cross group activities administered within participating schools throughout Victoria. Cards are filed alphabetically by school or associated Junior Red Cross group names. Each card includes the school/group name, the teacher/s who coordinated the group, details of Victorian Red Cross office-bearers for each year and a summary of the activities undertaken by the group. The activities and actions of administration of each group are identified on a separate card titled “Particulars”, which date and list actions of communication, donations, expenditure and membership letters from the Red Cross to the school group or visa versa. This series has an alphabetical list of participating schools and the dates groups were active. Researchers are encouraged to review this list to determine whether there likely to be an index card for a particular school or group. Researchers should note that under the Geneva Conventions Act 1957 protections govern the use of the Red Cross emblem. For further information see Archives staff.
