	James Ruse - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		James Ruse (1759 – 5 September 1837), pioneer of agriculture in Australia, was born on a farm in Cornwall.
		After 15 months Ruse announced that he and his wife Elizabeth (he married her in 1790) were now self-sufficient in food, and their farm formed the nucleus of a small community of farmers who, while technically still convicts, enjoyed considerable freedom and later had other convicts assigned to work for them.
		After Ruse's sentence expired in 1792, the title of his land was deeded to him, the first land grant in the colony.

	About JRAHS
		The FARM takes up about three quarters of the whole school grounds, and on it grows some pasture for the cattle and sheep to graze on, vegetables and crops we plant ourselves, fruit trees which the farmhands look after, and some other stuff like bees and poultry in the shed.
		Agriculture is a compulsory subject at school, and I wouldn't say that it's not fun, but it gets annoying when trying to escape the minefields (cow pats) when walking through the paddocks.
		The school still teaches other subjects like maths, english, science, and the other heap of subjects a student has to do, and is not a purely agricultural based school.

		But she was busy with other things, a whole range of tasks which any farmer's wife has to occupy her days, even with her children away.
