Abstract

Ballarat Teachers' College was established in 1926 to train teachers for rural schools in Victoria (Australia). The first principal, William Ellwood, was an inspirational, dynamic educator who imbued students with ideals of social and community service. These ideals would equip the young teacher to gain the esteem and respect of the rural communities where they would be assigned. (Author/SV)
