These records are held by State Records of South Australia (1919 - current).
These admission registers were created by the Umeewarra Mission School, which was the school located at the Umeewarra Mission, also known as Davenport Reserve, near Port Augusta. The registers record details about children that attended the school, including their name, date of birth, gender, religion, parents names and occupations, residence, previous school, grades, date of leaving school, and other remarks. Children are listed in the registers by their date of enrolment. The registers also include an alphabetical index to students.
These registers are open and can be accessed by any member of the public. For access to these registers please contact State Records of South Australia.
