That Was My Home explores the hidden histories of the Noongar camps aroundFremantle, Swanbourne and Shenton Park in the suburbs of Perth along the SwanRiver. The focus is the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s, a time when many Noongarpeople lived with their families in camps. 

The voices of Noongar people, juxtaposedwith information from the archives, photographs and stories from others in thecommunity, tell of life in the camps, work, cross-cultural tensions and friendships.

Together they give a greater understanding of the shared histories of our suburbs.

The author followed Aboriginal cultural protocols in obtaining permission to includestories, photos and other information.
