The Project

Throughout the length of one schooling year a select group of boys from Scotch College have worked with the National Trust in the restoration of graves at the East Perth Cemetery. In addition to this, the lives of the occupants of the graves that were maintained and restored have been researched by the boys during intensive research sessions in the Battye Library. The results of this research are displayed on this web site for the public and it consists of important information about some of Western Australia's first settlers.
