Gumleigh was a boys’ home established in Wagga Wagga by the United Protestant Association of New South Wales in 1956. It was a farm on 43 acres and farm training formed a large part of the home’s activities. Gumleigh closed in 1983.
Gumleigh was set up by the Wagga District Council, later called the Riverina District Council, of the United Protestant Association of New South Wales. The funds from the sale of Gumleigh were used to finance the purchase of two family group homes in Wagga Wagga.
