Welcome
172 British youths aged 15 to 19 arrived in South Australia to participate in the State Government's farm apprentice scheme during 1913-14, before the First World War interrupted.
They were predecessors to the better known 1,400-plus 'Barwell Boys' who arrived during 1922-24 and 125-odd 'Little Brothers' who emigrated in 1927-28.
This website shares their stories.
