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.

Massey State School Roll of HonourPrint Page 
The unveiling of the Honor Roll of the Massey State School, No 1907, took place on Friday, November 30, when about 100 persons assembled to witness the unveiling ceremony. Cr Lavery occupied the chair. Songs, recitations, and dialogues were provided by the children and friends. Just before the interval, Cr Lavery gave a stirring patriotic address, at the conclusion of which he called upon Mrs E. Richards to perform the ceremony of unveiling the Honor Roll, which already has on it the names of nine former scholars and headmaster. After the unveiling ceremony, Cr Green and Mr A. Johnson gave addresses in which they spoke eulogistically of the men whose names appeared on the board and also of the parents who had reared such noble sons. At the termination of the programme, supper was provided, thus bringing to a close a very enjoyable evening.
Donald Times (Vic), 4 December 1917.
