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.
Hutchins School Honour RollPrint Page 
The honour roll commemorates former students of the Hutchins School who served in the South African (Boer) War.
Associated with the annual break-up of Hutchins School on Wednesday afternoon was the unveiling, by His Excellency the Governor, of a memorial to the old boys who had served in the South African war. The occasion called for some ceremony, and attracted a much larger number of visitors than could be accommodated in the schoolroom, in which the tablet of Tasmanian hardwood, with its scroll of 48 names has been affixed. Mr Brown, as one of the oldest scholars of the school, was deputed to invite His Excellency to unveil the memorial.
The Mercury (Hobart), 18th December 1902.
Note: The “Tasmanian War Memorials Data Base”, compiled by Fred Thornett which is located at the State Library of Tasmania, contains a comprehensive listing of the names on this honour roll.
