The wooden honour roll commemorates former pupils of Turners Flat Public School who served in World War One. 

Friday last at Turner's Flat Public School there was a large assemblage of local residents and friends of the Henry family from a distance to accord a hearty send-off to Private Harry Henry, son of Mr. and Mrs. James Henry, of Deep Creek, on the eve of his sailing for the front: and right well they managed it.
 
After lunch the school roll of honour was unveiled by Mrs. Poulton. The names on this roll are J. Mainey, L. Mainey,
J. Cross, A. Fisher, A. White, B.H. Swan, O.J. Poulton, C. Mainey, J. Turner, W. Morris, A. C. Wright,  F. Metcalfe, J. Lawrence and H. Henry.
