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.

Roseworthy Memorial HallPrint Page 
The hall commemorates those who served in World War One. The hall was opened on the 26th October 1935 and replaced the original hall which was opened in 1919.
On Saturday afternoon, August 3rd at 3 p.m., the stone laying of the Roseworthy Memorial Hall will take place, the honor to be carried out by Mr. Thos. Stirling, a recognised old resident of the district. A public ceremony has been arranged. The chairman of the Building Committee (Mr. John Carmichael) will give the facts that led up to the decision to build a new structure, and, Mr. Perc. Carter will give the financial situation up to date.
It is also expected that the chairman of Mudla Wirra Council (Cr. Elliott Day) will speak, and the District Parliamentary representatives Messrs Crosby and Rudall, are expected to speak and compliment the district on its community welfare. Following the stone-laying ceremony, afternoon tea will be served in the day school adjoining the hall allotment ; and at night a promenade concert, dance and supper will mark the occasion as a period of rejoicing.
