SUMMARY:Coranderrk Aboriginal Reserve officially gazetted in 1863. 
DESCRIPTION:









Coranderrk Aboriginal Reserve was officially gazetted in 1863The Victorian government established the reserve to provide a place for Aboriginal people, particularly the Kulin clans, to live and work.&amp;nbsp;The reserve was initially 2,300 acres and later expanded.&amp;nbsp;



&amp;nbsp;








Here&#039;s a more detailed look at the establishment of Coranderrk:





In 1863, about 40 people from various Kulin clans moved to the reserve&amp;nbsp;.&amp;nbsp;



&amp;nbsp;




A notice in the Victoria&#039;s Government Gazette announced the &quot;temporary reservation&quot; of 2,300 acres for the Coranderrk Aboriginal Station in June 1863&amp;nbsp;.&amp;nbsp;



&amp;nbsp;




The reserve was later expanded to 4,850 acres in 1866&amp;nbsp;.&amp;nbsp;



&amp;nbsp;




Coranderrk became Victoria&#039;s largest reserve and a thriving farming community&amp;nbsp;.&amp;nbsp;



&amp;nbsp;




The reserve was managed by John Green, who fostered a culture of self-governance among the residents&amp;nbsp;.&amp;nbsp;



&amp;nbsp;




Coranderrk faced threats of closure and eventually closed in 1924&amp;nbsp;.&amp;nbsp;
