Episode 11 - St Catherine's College Untold Stories of Perth
-
- Society & Culture
Let’s look back to a little-known story from the University of Western Australia.
It took eighteen years for women, particularly from regional areas, to have a dedicated residential college to live in as they undertook their studies. St Catherine’s College opened in 1948, and they had a safe and dedicated home away from home at last.
Until three arson attacks in 1976.
