Main:

'It is a good and noble thing for a Community to build a War Memorial

In it we express our thanks that we live in this country

as a free and independent people.

We express our realisation that we owe this freedom to

those men and women who gave themselves, and all that

they had, in order that the ideals of freedom, justice

and truth might prevail in our country, and in the life

of the whole world.

By the erection of this War Memorial Education Centre,

dedicated to the memory of those brave and noble souls,

we give expression in a tangible and practical fashion, t

o our sense of gratitude for this spirit of service and

self sacrifice, and also towards Almighty God, who is the

source and strength of all man’s highest thoughts and

aspirations.

Finally, it is very fitting and right that these high and

noble ideals should be incorporated in, and woven into

the very fibre and texture of our whole educational system,

and that the boys and girls of to-day, and the children

of the generations yet to come, should remember those

who paid in blood, and tears, and sacrifice, i

n order that this heritage might be handed on to them,

as a foundation, strong and sure, upon which they may build

an enduring structure based upon the splendid pillars

of knowledge and wisdom of strength and beauty , and

of truth and justice.
