This record series was previously called Senior Officer's Log Books [Yawarra Training School for Boys, Kurri Kurri], but by July 2020 the name had been changed to Senior Officer's Log Books [Cobham Residential Care Unit] by NSW State Archives & Records. According to Connecting Kin (1998), there were 7 volumes of the Senior Officer's Log Books [Yawarra Training School for Boys, Kurri Kurri]. In July 2020 the NSW State Archives & Records listing for Senior Officer's Log Books [Cobham Residential Care Unit] did not state whether there were multiple volumes to the series.
