Hawker War Memorial PrecinctPrint Page
The precinct commemorates those who have served in the various conflicts in which Australia has been involved.
Stage 1 of the development was commenced in 2015, and the memorial was officially opened on the 27th June 2017.
The precinct consists of a paved area with a Memorial Cross and contains the Garden of Courage and Sacrifice which was planted in 2016. Handpainted honour rolls, sculptures, artworks and plaques are located within the area. The plaque which was originally located outside the Council Chambers has been relocated here as well as an information plaque detailing how previous ANZAC Day services were conducted in Hawker. The site was the former War Memorial Swimming Pool.
