Full description

This series contains admission registers for Dover Heights Home Science High School, Dover Heights Girls High School, Dover Heights Boys High School and Dover Heights High School.

The purpose of an admission register was to record basic details about children admitted to the school and their parents or guardians. The registers were also used to record the progress of the children through various classes and the date of their leaving the school.

These registers contain information pertaining to each student including: date of admission; pupil's name; date of birth; religious denomination; name of previous school and date of leaving. The following details are recorded about the child's parents or guardians: name, residence and occupation.

Admission registers in paper format ceased in 1999 when the department moved to recording enrolment details in electronic format.
