Any help appreciated with a sealed pattern badge.

Any help appreciated to identify this badge that came with some other Commonwealth badges. It has what I believe to be a 'Sealed Patten' Seal attached to it.
Any comments most welcome.

Thanks...

I think they were worn by 'Trainees' (Deck grades) post war during their training at Gravesend Nautical Training School on a blue BD type jacket.

Aussie Prison Help Required

Can anyone please confirm that this is a South Australia Prison badge?

I am assuming that GPD is : Government Prison Department

Any help would be appreciated.
