Museum of Applied Arts and Sciences

Established in 1879, the Museum of Applied Arts and Sciences' venues include the Powerhouse Museum, Sydney Observatory and Museums Discovery Centre at Castle Hill.

Education

Education in Sydney started with Aboriginal society and the everyday learning and formal initiation of young Aboriginal people. Institutionalised education came with the Europeans, who first created schools for convicts' children, and later for the children of the new gentry and middle classes. Sydney became the centre of education in the colony, with a university, and eventually in 1880, universal education throughout the suburbs of the growing city.
