Description of Content
A girl dressed in school uniform and carrying her school bag. She is standing in front of her father's FE Holden car. This photograph of Salva Crusca was taken by her father Tommaso Crusca at their home in Coburg, on Salva's first day at school at St Monica's Primary School, Moonee Ponds in 1964. Her mother dressed her in an over-sized uniform. She started in March, as her family had been overseas in Italy. The Crusca family had come to Australia in the 1950s, but things hadn't worked out so they returned to Italy in 1964, and then they returned to Australia about a year later. Salva spoke little English when she first went to school.
