- The First Fleet of 11 ships arrived at Botany Bay on 24 January 1788 after a three month voyage. Here the Aboriginal people, who lived in isolation for 40,000 years, met the British in an uneasy stand off at what is now known as Frenchmans Beach at La Perouse.
- Two years after the arrival of the First Fleet, the colonial authorities allocated land to male emancipists and expirees in little settlements. After completing their term ex-convicts were encouraged to stay in the settlements and cultivate their 30 acres of land
