Remembrance GardenPrint Page

The Remembrance Garden commemorates the Centenary of Armistice and those who served in World War One. 

The low stone walls built by Jack Gould define the space. The peppercorn tree has moved from an incidental feature to the centrepiece. The garden beds are thickly planted with rosemary. Three trees will be the living memorials – elm, pine and wattle. An interpretation panel is well placed to catch the eye of passers by. 

Funding of $29,768 was received in 2018 through the Armistice Centenary Grants Program to provide a place for contemplation, engagement, understanding and learning about the First World War.
