Kinchela Aboriginal Boys’ Training Home was the ‘home’ for many Aboriginal boys who were separated from their families under the auspices of the 1909 Aborigines Protection Act.

From 1924 the Kinchela Home was known as a harsh & cruel environment for Aboriginal boys, a placed where they were expected to learn how to assimilate into the mainstream white society. It closed in 1970.
