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.

Strahan State School Roll of HonourPrint Page 
The roll of honour commemorates former students who served in World War One.
Empire Day celebrations were carried out in a fitting manner. During the morning the Warden and councillors paid a visit to the state school and addressed the children. A blackwood honour board, containing the names of scholars who served in the Great War, was unveiled. The hoisting of the Union Jack and march past of scholars concluded the ceremony.
Examiner (Launceston), 29 May 1923.
Note: The “Tasmanian War Memorials Data Base”, compiled by Fred Thornett which is located at the State Library of Tasmania, contains a comprehensive listing of the names on this honour roll.
