If you go to the Home Page there is a search engine but I found changing the letter more successful... Be sure the check the town info from the home page also

Hoping you could add this resource. Western Australia Education Circulars and Staff Lists 1890-1996 (commonly known as 'Stud Books'). Invaluable resource for anyone who has an ancestor that was employed by the Education Dept. Also great for remembering staff at the schools you attended in WA.
