Find someone you know at Scopus
Find a relative, find a friend, find yourself…at the Mount Scopus College “Courage Then, Strength Now” exhibition.
Mount Scopus opens in 1949
The Mount Scopus Memorial College Helen Synman Archive Project invites the community to an exhibition of the College’s history through photographs, audio-visual and memorabilia.
The exhibition traces the colourful history of Scopus – Victorian school No. 1490, which opened on 8 February 1949 with 114 students in St Kilda Road Melbourne, and was the first privately funded co-educational Jewish day school in the state.
The exhibition will pay homage to visionary College founders, humble Scopus beginnings and provide access to significant material, documents, memorabilia, photographs and artefacts. A reading room will be open for visitors to view historic footage and to access photo albums and school publications from the 1940s to today.
Exhibition times: Sunday 8 November 2.00pm – 5.00pm
Monday 9 – Wednesday 11 November 11.00am – 3.00pm
