In this week's episode of Rear Vision Mirror we look back at education programs offered at the Bonegilla Migrant Centre. We then look at Mr Foster Cooper who was the editor for 50 years, from the 1870's, of one of Albury's earliest newspapers, the Albury Banner. And finally we take a look back at Wodonga in the 1960s.
