Visit this site to add another school to the war-history trail. Local collection records identify a Timaru West School war memorial plaque for ex-pupils, now located at Bluestone School.
This plaque helps show a wider pattern across Timaru. Schools were not just places of education. They became places where children learnt about service, sacrifice and loss. Memorials in schools meant that each new generation saw names from the past.
Find a WuHoo: the wording of the plaque, the number of names, and whether it describes the men as ex-pupils, old boys, or former students.
