The problem focused upon in this article is approached by presenting the characteristics of three waves of Polish emigration to Australia, with particular emphasis on the question of education. The factors, the presence of which influenced the course of emigration, have been discussed in detail. In particular, the motives of migration and the socio-political background and the socio-economic underpinnings accompanying the cultural adaptation of the Polish diaspora in Australia are explored within a specific time period. By making a historic analysis of Polish emigration to Australia, one can discern more waves. However, the most important waves are those related to historic events in Poland such as World War II, the activity of the Solidarity opposition and the transformation changes after the year 1989. The turning point was the year 1947, in which the presence of Poland in Australia became noticeable. With the passing of time, and the emergence of some significant political events in Poland, the number of emigrants in Australia has risen. However, each of the waves have differed, in many aspects, from earlier ones which, as the author proves, has had a significant effect on the educational fortunes of persons belonging to a particular wave of emigration.
