Wow Alison I think there should be a GN prize for multi-ethnic family and yours is a contender!
Yes I remember the White Australia policy Joan and the apartheid like treatment of the aboriginal people.
My GD's school town centre school in NSW I would say is 99% white.
In Perth it was very striking - there were Chinese immigrants but other than that, v. v. white, with the native Australians few in numbers (tho a lot more than NSW) and nearly all very much at the rock bottom of the socio-economic ladder. One or two in art galleries and the others, at best, busking. 20 years difference in life expectancy was a figure I came across!
In the UK immigrants tend to have improving health and other wellbeing measures. The exception is Irish because so many single men came here in 60s and 70s to build our infrastructure and were massively exploited.
