Sometimes the same names are always
turning up in the pages of the official Log Books
of Victorian schools - usually because of bad behaviour of some sort !
Willie Roberts appeared regularly in the
records of Gungrog Road
School in 1891 and 1892,
because he was always being sent home to have a wash or to tidy himself
up ! (But remember that many children had to wash
in icy cold water, and warm homes and washing machines were not part of
their lives...)
