The description states: Front of the Saint John’s Hostel, Alice Springs. A desolate courtyard with a small supervised boy playing in the dust. A two storey building of two wings joined by entrance section. Flywired dormitories on top floor.
This photograph of a Christmas party at the ‘Lutheran Home’ in Alice Springs is dated 195? . As the Cottages were not opened until 1963, this date appears to be incorrect
This is a photo of Giles House at Kempe Street, Alice Springs.
The Australian Inland Mission Hostel is referred to as the original Alice Springs Hospital in the State Library description of this photograph. The photograph was taken when the building was opened in 1926.
This photograph is part of the Australian Inland Mission collection.
The Australian Inland Mission Hostel was known locally as Adelaide House.
This image shows various buildings at the Aboriginal Inland Mission at Phillip Creek. The purpose of these buildings and whether or not they would have housed children in care at the Mission is not known.
