Does anyone have access to school registers in Bangalow N.S.W? I'm looking for a Roy Howard Baker born 1916 in Bangalow. TIA.

Can't help with school records I'm afraid, you may have already seen there is this item from 1948 about his receiving the Military Medal.

Probably Roy in 1935 at a fancy dress dance

Why are you particularly requesting school record information, may I ask?
Are you certain that he attended a school there?

Adding I see TreeSpirit's link suggest he did.

Sorry for not replying sooner. The reason why I want his school records is to confirm that he attended school in Bangalow. Thank you everyone for your help.

A "Punishment Book", my goodness, I had no idea such a thing existed, and up to 1970!

Not definite proof that Roy went to Bangalow Public School, however there is this item which mentions  Lionel BAKER performing at the school concert in 1933. I'm assuming Lionel is Roy's brother (both births registered at Byron Bay with parents John and Rebecca). Also assuming brothers would attend the same school.

Also this item from 1934 which mentions E. BAKER and R. BAKER as taking part in a concert at Bangalow Cof E Sunday School. If they were Cof E, unlikely to have attended "St Joseph's School, Bangalow".
