Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.

Gawler Institute Memorial BalconyPrint Page 
The balcony was erected to commemorate those from the district who died in service or were killed in action in World War One.
On Wednesday evening of next week a grand concert by the Sable Grivell Concert Party will mark the re-opening of the Institute building following remodelling to express as a district memorial to the men who fell in the Great War and to meet the needs of increased accommodation in the main hall. A ceremonial will precede the concert. The Gawler Band will play on the balcony prior to 8 o'clock; and at that hour the President of the Institute (Mr. M.Lynch) will have the pleasure of officially declaring the building open for public usage and pleasure.
Bunyip (Gawler), 6th March 1931.
