The search has resumed for children's bodies believed to buried in
the grounds of an old Ballarat orphanage associated with historic sexual
and physical abuse.
The orphanage closed in 1968 and the site has since been bought by a developer, but former residents raised concerns with Ballarat City Council two years ago that children's bodies may be buried there.
The former orphanage was built in the mid-1860s and was home to more than 4000 children during its tenure.
