The Murri School (also known as the Aboriginal and Islander Independent Community School) was first established in 1986. This subseries is comprised of correspondence from 1986 to 1993, reports and internal memos from 1986 to 1994, financial statements from 1992 to 1997, cards and drawings from 1988 to 1992, and a log book detailing events from 1989 to 1993.

William McArthur Mayo (Bill) and Eliza Mary (Lila), née Saxelby corresponded frequently with their daughter Daphne. Sometimes both parents would write individual letters to Daphne on the same day, at other times they would each write in the same letter, and they would also write to her individually. There are approximately 1422 items of correspondence in this subseries dating from 1919 to 1959. Bill would often write about financial matters including Daphne's rental property in Brisbane. Occasionally Lilia would get the date wrong and, if discernible, this date has been corrected in pencil on the letter. As Lila's health deteriorated, her handwritten became more difficult to read.
