Parndana Soldier Settler Museum

The museum was constructed to recognise the soldier settlers and their families who came to KI after WW2. It was a tough life for 140 families with no sanitation, no services, inadequate provisions and plenty of hard work involved in clearing the country. Over time, the camp became more civilised as huts, roads, and schools were built. Women played a significant role in supporting newcomers and making life liveable while the men slogged it out, bulldozing trees and turning the bush into paddocks. It wasn't a fertile country, and cropping had limited success. The leading entertainment in the early days was the regular dances.
