Did Aboriginal children get separated from British children?

Yes, Aboriginal children in Australia were often separated from British children as part of government policies aimed at assimilating Indigenous populations. This included the establishment of the Stolen Generations, where many Aboriginal children were forcibly removed from their families and communities to be raised in white institutions or foster homes. The intent was to integrate them into British cultural norms, leading to significant cultural and familial disruption for Aboriginal communities. This practice has had lasting social and emotional impacts on generations of Indigenous Australians.
