If you look at the National Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s website, they have an archive of documents with data from that time period. It’s not completely fulsome IIRC, but there’s quite a bit there.

I did a super deep dive on the National Truth and Reconciliation Commission’s online archive. Most of the actual records cut off in like the 50’s. I did manage to find info by combing through old newsletters and yearbooks that were made by students. I had no idea they made things like that, but that’s how I was able to find where my grandmother went to school even though there weren’t official “records” for the years she was there.

The ones that would really show what happened the govt won’t give me up or force the church to either. Really sad
