Checked the London Times and came across this:

Saturday, July 1, 1939

The Big Brother Movement
Aid To Young Emigrants
A party of 19 British boys who leave for Australia from Southampton
on board the Moreton Bay to-day under the auspices of the Big Brother
Movement....

If this is the trip your father was on let me know and I will give
you the whole story.

Regards..
