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.

The Children`s Corner in the church commemorates Doris Florence Gibbins who died in 1932.
A children's corner, of which there now are about six in Queensland, was dedicated to the memory of Miss Doris Florence Gibbons at St. Marys Church of England, Kangaroo Point on Sunday morning. Rev. M. E. de B. Griffith, director of religious education, spoke of the good work of Miss Gibbons, who was an active member of St. Mary`s Players, members of which society and other friends had furnished the corner. Mr Lawrence Johnson unveiled the tablet bearing the inscription.
