Description: This is a photograph of a dormitory at Goodlet Cottage at Mittagong Cottage Homes, later known as Renwick. It shows a room filled with single beds placed against each wall topped with orange sheets. One of the beds is unmade, showing a very thin mattress on the bedframe. There is no other furniture in the room, but there are photos stuck to the walls around the window. Paint is peeling off the walls, and there are cracks in the plaster near the ceiling. This photograph is part of a collection of photographs from children’s Homes and Institutions held by the NSW Department of Community Justice.
