Amanda Sorry, we sold out of the book years ago. If there is any info I can help you with, let me know. We didn't publish the names of the students, as it was up to 2,000 in 1980 I think. I could do a photocopy for you, if you are willing to pay for the postage and copying. There are 40 pages.

I am sorry this is off topic but the warning is true for us in Qld.Take care everyone. SECURITY WARNING We have been informed of the following scam, which is targeting females in particular. All males please note and pass on to all females. They received a phone call from the Post Office asking them to confirm their company postcode. When this is given, they are told that they have become eligible for some gift vouchers for their co-operation and are asked to provide their home address and postcode in order to receive the vouchers. So far 90% of the women who have provided this information have been burgled as it is assumed that their homes are empty during office hours. The police are aware of this scam and the Post Office have confirmed that the are NOT conducting postcode surveys. Also, it has been reported , if you receive a telephone call from an individual who identifies himself/herself as being an AT&T service technician who is conducting a test on that telephone line, or anyone else who asks you to do the following, DON'T. They will state that to complete the test the recipient should touch nine, zero, then hash (90#) and then hang up. To do this gives full access to your phone line, which allows them to place long distance, international or chat-line calls billed to your account. The information which the police have, suggests that many of these calls are emanating from local jails. The information has been checked out by the police and is correct. DO NOT PRESS 90# FOR ANYONE. Would anyone reading this please pass the information on to colleagues, friends, etc otherwise it could cost someone a lot of money.

Just a quick note to let you know that I can be of no help to you on any of these names.L.

Hi All, If SKS has access to Mackay newspapers for January 1940 could I request a lookup. David DRAIN was buried at Mackay Cemetery on January 17, 1940. I am wondering if there was a death or funeral notice in a Mackay newspaper prior to this date. TIA. Markus - Shepparton Australia

I'm now seeking reminiscences of teachers in North Queensland pre-1950 for publication in the Townsville Family History Association magazine, "Relatively Speaking". Perhaps you could tell us what a pupil teacher was, how old you were when you became a qualified teacher, where you taught, your duties, subjects you taught, war time duties and general reminiscences.
