Roll of Honour

Sherborne School Roll of Honour

The Books of Remembrance & Ante-Chapel, Sherborne School. (Sherborne School Archives)

Shirburnians have a long tradition of remembering their own. At the east end of the School chapel is a memorial recording the names of the twelve Old Shirburnians who lost their lives in the South African War of 1899-1902. The names of those Old Shirburnians who fell in the First (approx. 221) and Second World Wars (approx. 242) are incised into the walls of the ante-chapel, designed by Sir Reginald Blomfield, and are also recorded in the Books of Remembrance.

We will remember them.
