Colebrook Home was a South Australian Aboriginal mission run by the United Aborigines Mission from 1924 to 1972.[1] It existed at three separate locations through its lifetime. The United Aborigines Mission first established a home in 1924 near Oodnadatta, though it was not known as Colebrook Home at that time. It then moved to a place called Colebrook just outside Quorn in 1927, where it became known as Colebrook Home. Finally, in 1944 the Home was moved to Eden Hills, just outside Adelaide. It closed in 1972, and is now the site of the Colebrook Reconciliation Park. The original Colebrook at Quorn is now a small Aboriginal community. Adelaide businessman and philanthropist A. E. Gerard (1877–1950), who was involved with the foundation of Colebrook, wrote about its early days in his publication History of the UAM (1944). See also
