History edit

Hamilton Hume and William Hovell were two early explorers who passed through the area, travelling from Sydney to Geelong in 1824.[2] The township was originally known as "Dight's Forest", after John Dight who was a relative of Hamilton Hume. Although likely to be aboriginal, the origin of the place name "Jindera" is now obscure.[3]

During the nineteenth century Jindera saw a substantial population of German Australians who had migrated to the Riverina in the 1860s, principally from South Australia.[4][5]

Dight's Forest Post Office opened on 1 January 1870 and was renamed Jindera in 1885.[6]

In 1900, Jindera, Thurgoona and Black Range Australian rules football club's played in the Swain Trophy competition.[7]

Education edit

St John's Lutheran School is a coeducational independent school located in Jindera that caters for preschool through to Year 6.,[8] and is a part of Lutheran Education Australia, a network of schools and early childhood centres designed to promote and support Lutheran education across Australia.[9] St John's was established in 1868 when the Lutheran pioneers trekked from South Australia to Jindera. The first school was a single log cabin classroom attached to Pastor J.F. Goessling's house.[10][11] The school's current location) was built in 1924.[12]

Jindera Public School moved to its current premises in 1992.[13]

In 2009, the St Mary MacKillop College, Albury opened in the grounds of St Mary's Church, Jindera.
