Physical Description: 1 photograph : b&w ; 10.0 x 12.5 cm

Scope and Content: Photograph of five women dressed in wet bathing suits. They have their arms over each others' shoulders and have a leg raised as in a chorus line. An older lady, in a long dark skirt and light coloured waist with leg-o-mutton sleeves holding a dark coloured parasol is standing on the right side of the photograph. According to a 1974 catalogue record, the small girl who is on the left side of the chorus line with her leg raised is Catherine Rees. The girl is wearing a ribbon in her hair, and dress-like bathing suit, and has bare feet. The women are all wearing dark coloured stockings and have on what look like loose-fitting dresses which fasten down the front and come to just below the knee. Four of them are wearing bandanas on their heads. The Sears, Roebuck 1908 catalogue p. 1112 shows bathing suits and bathing or dust caps similar to those worn by the women in the photograph. The location of the photograph is unidentified.

Physical Description: 1 photograph : col. ; 5.3 x 10 cm

Scope and Content: Photograph of workshop buildings with five bay doors at New Haven Correctional Centre.

History: In 1937 New Haven Correctional Centre was established as the British Columbia Training School on the southeast side of Marine Drive in Burnaby (4250 Marine Drive). Sections of Sussex and Patterson Avenues bordered the estate. Originally, the facility housed nineteen inmates with two staff and was one of the first initiatives in Canada to segregate young adult inmates into a separate institution apart from adults. This was part of the Borstal system that started in England whereby young male offenders between the ages of sixteen and twenty one were trained to earn an honest living. Alterations and additions to the estate took place between December 1937 and October 1939 so that more inmates could be accomodated. Five new cottages were built that could hold up to forty people. Except for the plastering and lighting, all work on the new cottages was done by the inmates. On October 29, 1939, the Lieutenant-Governor Eric Hamber formally opened the New Haven Borstal School. World War II interrupted full development of the intstitution and it was closed in 1941 when the inmates were were conscripted into the army. Between 1941 and 1947 the Deaf and Blind Institute were housed at New Haven. In 1947, the New Haven Borstal School returned to the estate. New additions were added to old buildings and new additional buildings were erected on the site over the years including a warden's house on the east grounds and a barn and gymnasium. In the 1970s an equipment shed was added along with another dormitory and a variety of small sheds and storage buildings. The correctional centre officially closed in March 2001.
