Roseworthy Memorial Chapel

non-denominational chapel

Architects: Dean W Berry and Gilbert. Walls made of Mallee limestone, roof red terracotta. Above the Chapel entrance is a Waikerie limestone sculpture by John Dowie AO depicting a young warrior discarding his uniform in readiness to return to the land. The organ was donated by Mrs R J Rudall in memory of her late son Jake, a College student who was killed on active service in New Guinea in December 1942.
The Chapel is commemmorated to students who served and died on active duty during the Boer War and the two World wars.
Time Capsule: The large stone adjacent to the outside wall of the Chapel marks the 1976 burial spot of a time capsule containing information pertaining to the College for that year and is to be opened in 2026. The project was initiated by principal D.W. Williams.
