William Angliss Oral Histories

 

William Angliss Institute—formerly known as William Angliss Trade School, for over 70 years, the Institution is a dedicated  training provider to the foods, tourism and hospitality industries delivering a range of courses nationally and internationally. William Angliss Oral History Project has been commissioned to mark its wonderful contribution to Australia's cultural, social, culinary and tourism history.

The aim of the project is to locate and record interviews with former students, teachers, and staff of William Angliss Institute (WAI). Their stories will be added to WAI’s culinary archive and an oral history website will be the public face of the project. Interviews and exerts of interviews will be available on this website.

70 years

Much of the history of WAI has not been documented. The recorded interviews will become part of the Learning Resource Centre's Special Collections, which already has an extensive collection of over 6000 rare items. The Oral History project will bring life into this collection. Oral history is built around people; the stories of past students and staff with public profiles and the ‘unknown’ majority will be part of this history.
