Social History
Julia Teresa Flynn (1878-1947), educationist, was born on 24 January 1878 at 18 Rosslyn Street, West Melbourne, youngest of six children of Daniel Flynn, grain and corn merchant, and his wife Bridget, née Burke, both Irish-born Catholics. Julia was educated first in Carlton, then at South Melbourne College and later at Presbyterian Ladies’ College, where she came under the influence of a brilliant mathematics master, J. P. Wilson. She matriculated in 1893. Three years later she again took the examination, this time with first-class honours in geometry and trigonometry.

A graduate of the University of Melbourne with a reputation as an outstanding mathematics teacher, Julia Flynn was appointed inspector of secondary schools in 1914. She became a senior inspector in the Victorian Department of Education in 1924, and in 1937 was appointed chief inspector of schools. Flynn was a devoted Catholic and a feminist reformer.
