ENROLMENT REGISTER OF THE GEELONG COLLEGE

Enrolment Registers have been maintained by the Geelong College in hardcopy from 1871 to 1996. There are seven volumes as follows:

Volume 1: 1871 - 1901
Volume 2: 1901 - 1909
Volume 3: 1910 - 1944
Volume 4: 1945 - 1961
Volume 5: 1962 - 1979
Volume 6: 1979 - 1990
Volume 7: 1990 - 1996

The Enrolment Registers from Volume 3, 1925 onwards are closed records to public access, as they may relate to living individuals and contain personal information such as birth details. Records from 1997 onwards are only held in digital format and no enrolment register as such now exists.

No enrolment registers survive for the period 1861 to 1870 and student attendance for this period has been re-constructed, principally, on the basis of prize and sporting lists published in the Annual Reports. Other information such as anecdotal, newspaper and biographical information has also been used. There may be errors and omissions in this re-construction.

It is probable that the Enrolment Register record for the period from 1871 to about 1908 was re-transcribed, initially under the direction of Charles Norman Morrison.

Where information is published in this Guide under the headings of Enrolment Register and Year, the information is published in its original form. Users of this guide should note that sometimes this information was incorrectly noted or transcribed at the time of original enrolment or registration. Where there is an associated biographical entry the difference will usually be noted.

 Transcriptions of the years 1871-1910 of the Geelong College Enrolment Registers are available:
