 gladys maud cavey born 1902 guernsey and eva emily cavey born 1898 guernsey all help appreciated 

Checking the free index search for 1911 the girls appear together in Jersey

Did they also have a sister Elsie Enid born 1901?

Girls were taken to the Orphanage at Grouville and boys went to a school established above Gorey village

possible death for Eva

Not sure if any of these documents relate to your Sydney John Cavey gives a dob of 2/11/1891 living St Helier may have died 1946 (available is the will & testament of Sydney John Cavey )
you can email them to order a copy of each of the documents

There is a Merchant Navy record on FindMyPast for Sydney John Cavey which ties in. His birthdate 21 Nov 1891 but his birthplace according to this record is Jersey.
If it does turn out to be the correct one it would be worth investing in a few credits for FindMyPast.
There are photographs of both Sidney and Percy on the original images

Here's something that may or may not relate to Percy William Cavey dated 1910
http://search.jerseyheritage.org/Details/archive/110186726

For info.
The earilest info. I could find on jerseyhertigate for Grouville Orphanage was dated 1920
which gives annual report, number & names of children, attendance etc.....
you could e-mail them to see if they have anything earlier
