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.

Kettering State School Honour RollPrint Page 

The honour roll commemorates former students who served in World War One.
The unveiling of the roll at the Kettering State School took place last week. The ceremony was performed by the Warden of Kingborough (Mr B Pearsall ) in the presence of a very large gathering of parents, children and friends. The board is of polished blackwood, with gold leaf lettering and contains the names of 24 old scholars of the school including Sister Folder. All of them enlisted for active service and seven of them made the supreme sacrifice. The cost of the honour roll was met by subscriptions by parents and friends of the district.
The Mercury (Hobart), 15th November 1920.
