The School Magazine, originally subtitled ‘ A Magazine of Literature for Our Boys and Girls’, has been published continuously by the New South Wales Department of Education since its first issue of a 16-page monthly publication in 1916, and is the longest running children’s magazine in the world.
Centenary celebrations this year, include the publication of a new anthology For Keeps, featuring some of the finest writing and illustration from the magazines’ pages, and a birthday party with hundreds of invited students at Royal Botanic Garden Sydney on 2 August 2016.
