Hello BMiller
Thank you so much for your reply with this information on Isabella Marciniak. I am very grateful  for your help. The family has very little information on this part of their family.
Are you aware of the school she was enrolled at?
Regards Kerszk

Hi Kerszk, The records are from the Camp school at Parkes, apparently all the migrant camps had their own schools, I just found out. The link below will take you to the site.

It would seem that the records are sealed for a time but as it is over 50 years now the records are open so you can access them from the above.

Happy Hunting

Parkes is my old home town, I know there was a migrant camp located at the airport, they must have had a school at the site. I have photos of all pages of the enrolment book and also a copy of the 1988 reunion.

Isabella and her parents settled in Parkes and remained there all their lives. Isabella ha a sister Alfreda who migrated before them with her husband Frank. They were settled around the Latrobe Valley area and then Morwell in Victoria. Alfreda is my husbands mother. She is now 88 years old has 6 children, 17 grandchildren and 23 great great grand children.
I would love to get a copy of the enrolment book if that is possible.
