The wooden honour roll commemorates former students of the school who served in World War One.  

In November 1917, a silky oak honour board, the work of a former pupil, was unveiled by Mr. T. Wilson, M.L.A., on which there were 191 names of past scholars, several of whom paid the supreme sacrifice.
