Scope and content

This series contains textual records related to the operation of the Church Sunday school. This includes materials related to the administration of the school, namely ledger books; meeting minutes; prospectuses; annual reports, attendance records and pedagogical material.

The two ledger books run from 1961 to 1971 and 1957 to 1975 respectively. The extant minutes consist of two bound minute books, one from the Sunday School Teachers’ Association covering 1851 to 1864 and another of Sunday school teachers’ meetings from 1870-1883, as well as Religious Education Committee minutes from 1960-1967, 1968-1973 and 1986-1993. The series also contains scattered annual reports from 1916 to 1996 and church school prospectuses from 1950 to 2002 with some gaps. There are also records related to the selection and training of teachers and volunteers, as well as a small number of pedagogical materials from various time periods.

Attendance records exist for the years 1842-1849, 1994-1995, 2001-2002, 2003-2004. The series also contains a set of Sunday school cards which run from 1910 through 1917 and include cards recording total school attendance and money collected each Sunday per class, as well as cards for each individual student that record their individual attendance information.
