The William Thompson Masonic School War Memorial commemorates the masons of New South Wales who died in service or were killed in action during World War One. This memorial has no inscription except for the veterans names engraved into the glass plate panels.

This memorial was built and installed in 2007 and stands an impressive 4 meters high with a width of 1.755 meters. Inside the 8 mm thick steel surround with the veteran soldiers outlined cut out, there are 4 glass plate panels 12 mm thick with the names of all the New South Wales Masons who died in World War One. Each of the glass panels is 1 meter tall and 1.6 meters wide and behind the memorial there stands the flag pole approximately 6 meters tall. Around the base of the memorial, the surrounding area is planted with Rosemary in a natural bush setting. The memorial stands at the beginning of the Avenue of Remembrance.
