AUCKLAND ARCHIVES .. Look up please? COMPLETED THANKYOU

[New Zealander]

Does anyone know?

"From the Annals of Rototuna"published in 1979 author May Thompson the Rototuna School started in 1881, celebrated a 50th Jubliee in 1931 and about 1938 was amalgamated with the Farifield School.

Does anyone know where the Rototuna School admission rolls might now be found and can they be searched?  I am interested in the years 1914 - 1920.

I note that there are large number of files available under Restricted Access at Archway when searched for "Rototuna 1914 - 1920".  It would be too much to expect someone to order and search these on my behalf and was hoping I could locate something a little easier to access.  Have tried the Hamilton City Library Archives without success.

Any help or assistance would be much appreciated.

Thank you

Hi Alex

From memory the YCAF files have a card index that you use to find the exact file number,the rolls(once again from memory ) are bound into books,

Hi Janette

Good to hear from you again, thank you.

I am seeking information on some of my family members now all deceased.

Does this information disclose individual children in each class?

With this information it begs the next question is there anyone going to Archives NZ in Auckland who could search  the "Card Index's" for the Rototuna School between the years 1914 - 1920 for me please?

Specificaly I am seeking the admission and leaving dates for the following family members :-  Isabella Glennie, James Alexander Glennie and Margaret Jean Glennie. 

From Rototuna the children may have left and gone to another school in the Hamilton area or departed the area altogether for a school in South Canterbury.

Any assistance would be most appreciated.

Many thanks

Alex, as you are at the bottom of the South Island, it may be advisable if you re-arranged your subject title to include the words 'Auckland Archives - look up please'. - Alan.
