Cook Book – 1960's

This little Cook Book is the first of what hopefully will be many Moorefield publications from our archives to be digitised and posted to the blog for all to enjoy.  It was handed in by Susan Molloy (5th Form, 1964) who offered the following comments: 

“This unpretentious little recipe book is one of my favourites – full of practical ideas to feed a hungry family.  What it lacks in glossy photos of perfectly presented food, it more than makes up for with memories of staff, students and Kogarah life in the wonderful 60’s.  For ex-students like me that’s a feast in itself!!”   Susan Molloy (5th Form, 1964) 

What year was this little gem printed or distributed to the community of Moorefield Girls High School at Kogarah in Sydney, Australia?  Who was involved with this project – any names, memories etc.?  The 69 images in this set represent the entire contents of the Cook Book. If you have any recollection of the book, please leave comments at the bottom of this post. 

The scanned images of each page have been uploaded to our Moorefield Flickr account where you can click on the Cook Book Set and:

  • view each page individually (select the “All Sizes” link on top of the image for further options ie. size, download, open/save and print), or,
  • use the slideshow option at the top right corner of your screen. 

Posting all available School Magazines (Yearbooks) online for 24/7 access from anywhere in the world while at the same time preserving archives in a format other than hard copy is our goal.  This is a very time consuming process and as time is very limited, will also be a very slow process. 

Stay tuned …
