 At its Eden Hills location, Colebrook Home continued to house children, including prominent Aboriginal Australian health worker and public administrator Lowitja O'Donoghue.By 1956 the property was in poor condition and the home was finally closed in 1972 and demolished in 1973.The Reconciliation Park was born out of meetings in the 1990s between a local reconciliation study group and the "Tji Tji Tjuta" (former residents) of Colebrook Home.
