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.
St Peter`s College South African (Boer) War Honour RollPrint Page 
The wooden, five-panelled honour roll commemorates ninety-one former students who served in the South African (Boer) War. Three of these died in service or were killed in action.
The Collegians’ Association commissioned the installation of the roll in 1902.
The annual old scholars service will be held in the school chapel on Sunday morning at 11 o'clock. Special interest is attached to the event this year owing to the fact that the Bishop of Adelaide (Right Rev. Dr. Harmer) will unveil a tablet, erected in the large schoolroom by the Old Scholars' Association, on which are recorded the names of old St. Peter's boys who fought for the empire in the Boer War. So far 79 names are recorded, but the list is by no means complete.
The ceremony of unveiling will take place at 10.45 a.m. For the service the chapel is entirely reserved for past and present scholars and the governors of the school. Dr. Harmer will preach, and special music will be rendered by the school choir.
Register (Adelaide), 6 September 1902.
