Mount Waverley ANZAC Centenary WalkwayPrint Page
The Walkway commemorates the Centenary of ANZAC and those who served in World War One.
Funding of $4503 was received in 2018 through the Armistice Centenary Grants program to install an Armistice Plaque and produce a booklet outlining all plaques and their significance in the existing walkway
In 2014, the Rotary Club of Mount Waverley officially opened the Mount Waverley ANZAC Centenary Walkway. The memorial walkway is a major project initiated by the Club.
Located at the Mount Waverley Community Centre, it is a place of reflection set within a picturesque garden. The Walkway commemorates each year of World War One, with information plaques along the walkway. It’s both a commemorative and educational space.
Sponsored by the Australian Government’s Australian Centenary Public Grants Program and supported by the Department of Veterans` Affairs, the Walkway recognises the importance of acknowledging the fallen and ensuring we commemorate the sacrifice of Australian and New Zealand military personnel who have died during war. With support from the City of Monash, the initial design for the walkway was by Rotary member engineer Paul Power.
