I am seeking please School Student Records for schools in the Glenthompson district during the period 1886 to 1893?

I am researching to find out first where my grandfather, John BELL (born about 1878 in Ballarat) may have gone to school & whether his student records are still available? Although his parents married in October, 1881, it appears John was born 2 or 3 years earlier. His own army records points fairly closely to a birth date/month of about October, 1878. During the period 1878-81 his father was a miner and worked in several different areas which meant he was often away from home for long periods.

I know his parents Robert BELL & Isabella (nee PATTIE) came to Glenthompson, Victoria in 1886 where Robert worked as a Railway Ganger. The family remained there until about 1902, when they moved to Burrumbeet, near Ballarat.

Other children born at Glenthompson were:

William Josiah (1886, d. 1888)
Thomas (1890)
Grace (1893)
George (1895)
Muriel (1897)
Robson (1899)

Two other children had been born earlier, Robert Armstrong (b. Goldsborough in 1882) & Elizabeth (b. Goldsborough in 1884).

Any help with obtaining any records or proof of their schooling at Glenthompson is greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

I am seeking please some information on the location of Kynaston Street, Waterloo Second Part (Lambeth, London Surrey).

One of my collateral ancestors, Sarah Jane POCKNELL died at No. 16 Kynaston Street as above. I have failed to locate this address though I know many streets have changed name since this era! I also believe there is now a Kynaston Road but am unsure whether this is one and the same street/road.

Any help is very much appreciated.

Thanks,
Rob
