From 1977 St Luke’s ran a number of family group home and residential care units in Bendigo. Several of these home had previously been run by The Mission of St James and St John, and were transferred to St Luke’s in 1977 when it became an independent agency. Other homes were transferred to the control of St Luke’s in the 1980s from St Aidan’s Children’s Centre (Convent of the Good Shepherd) in Bendigo. The exact opening and closing dates for many of these homes are not yet known.
