Memorial boxes
If
you can’t make it to the Memorial or want to add value to your
visit, borrow a Memorial Box.
They contain artefacts that students can handle, as well as photographs, case studies, uniforms, a video, oral histories, teacher’s notes, and more. Memorial Boxes can be adapted for use across many areas of study and are accessible to a wide range of students, from lower primary to senior secondary.
There are six titles in the series:
- Box 01 – Australia in the First World War
- Box 02 – For service to others
- Box 03 – Too dark for the Light Horse: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders in the defence forces
- Box 04 – Australia under attack!
- Box 05 – We want to do more: the experience of women and children during the Second World War
- Box 06 – Our war in the Pacific, 1942
Each state and territory has a complete set of all boxes, with duplicates of the most popular titles.

While use of a box in your classroom, libary or community group is free, borrowers may be asked to pay a charge for freight and handling.
Make a booking with your local agent.
