At the March Ordinary Meeting of the Melton City Council, it’s expected that Councillors will endorse the use of land at the Diggers Rest Recreational Reserve for the proposed Diggers Rest War Memorial.
The establishment of a war memorial at Diggers Rest is a joint initiative between the Diggers Rest Lions Club and the Diggers Rest Primary School.
A war memorial for Diggers Rest will help to commemorate Diggers Rest residents who died in wars in which Australia has fought.
It is anticipated that the project will include a “teaching garden” to enable the ANZAC tradition to form part of the school curriculum in a more significant way.
