Barton's Mill School
These are brief notes taken from a Barton’s Mill Primary School File held in the State Records Office, Alexander Library, Perth, from Accession No. 1497: File No. 220/17 – “Attendance”. Other files relating to the school are: 922/1 – “Establishment”; 3803/11; 1799/5; 736/25; and 135/36, all titled “Buildings & Works”. A lot of the entries are in note form, but due to time constraints, I have simply picked out items of particular interest, and abbreviated these where necessary, to give some indication of the efforts involved in getting this school up and running after it had been closed in May 1922, and in again re-opening (after it closed in May 1939) with the establishment of Barton’s Mill Prison.

Dear Sir,
I am writing you these few lines to see if the Government would allow us to have a School teacher up here there are five little children driving six miles to school in this terrible hot weather & they have to lose a lot of schooling because it is too hot for them to go, there are also four more children here that ought to go to school but can’t go because they have no way of getting there. There is also a nice school & quarters built here so they would be under no expense only the teacher there are nine or more children to go to school so would you try to get us a teacher here for the new year hoping you will think of the little children who have to go six miles to school all through the summer. Yours N.L. Gibbs

Cooler Dress for Men
Mr. Arthur Lathwell, a school teacher of Barton’s Mill, photographed in St. Georges Terrace yesterday. His coatless, collarless, and sleeveless attire looks cool in contrast to the clothing worn by men near him. Mr. Lathwell advocates the wearing of short trousers, three-quarter length hose, soft collarless shirts and sandals for men’s summer wear.

May 3rd: From Secretary Gaul, Officers’ Union – Over 12 children resident at Barton’s Mill and with construction of houses for Officers and families, number will increase. When will Barton’s Mill be provided with a teacher?
May 4th: (220/1759 – URGENT): Department of Controller of Prisons. No obstruction to re-opening except accommodation not suitable for a female teacher.
May 9th: Director of Education from Department Controller-General of Prisons – Conditions not exactly ideal for a female teacher, although ground could be explored to board with a married member of disciplinary staff.
As numbers likely to increase might find it possible to send a male teacher.
At present former building is used as a gaol store; the prison could vacate the building but only at great inconvenience. Could you look at your idea of sending one of your mobile classrooms?
May 15th: As soon as the school is vacated, a teacher will be sent; there is no chance of the transfer of a classroom. Although difficulties in the way, believe a male teacher should be sent. What are the particulars regarding board and lodging?
May 17th: Letter from parent B. Loudon/?London advising at least 13 children are waiting for a school. Mine are in 6th Class, 4th Class and 2nd class.
May 19th: From the Director of Education, advising he had visited Barton’s Mill, and advised the Prisons’ Department that as soon as the building was vacated a teacher would be sent.
May 25th: It was arranged for the school to occupy the Hall.

June 29th: Barton’s Mill School opened in the Government building.
November 4th: To Chief Inspector of Education, Mr Coleman:
Would like an interview with you. A senior girl, not quite 14 has been offered the Post Mistress job – she could still continue her schoolwork.
November 5th: Will interview 7th November at 11:30 (Saturday). Permission granted.
December 8th:The Department wants an Exemption from School Form filled out. Thought this was not required, as the girl will attend school from time to time.
December 9th: Form must be submitted and in the meantime the girl must attend school regularly.
