Childrens Activities

Children spent most of their childhood helping their parents searching for gold. Otherwise they carried wood, looked after the tent or hut, cared for HORSES or fossicked among the left-over gravel or sand.

Some children were sent to school , but the education standard was not very high.

I'll be back 3with more info.
