Honour and Remember: Memorial Opportunities at Charles Sturt University

At Charles Sturt University, we believe in honouring the memories of those who have made a lasting impact on our community. With over 70 memorials already gracing our campuses, we offer a unique opportunity for you to create a lasting tribute to a loved one, mentor, or significant figure in your life.

Why Memorials Matter

Memorials serve as a timeless reminder of the individuals who have shaped our lives and our university. They provide a place for reflection, inspiration, and connection, fostering a sense of continuity and community.

Your Memorial Options

We offer a variety of memorial options to suit your preferences and honour your loved one’s legacy:

Benches and Seating Areas: Create a peaceful spot for students and staff to rest and reflect.
Trees and Gardens: Plant a tree or sponsor a garden area on one of our memorial walks, contributing to the natural beauty and sustainability of our campuses.
Plaques and Monuments: Install a plaque or monument in a meaningful location, commemorating a significant individual or event.
Scholarship Funds: Establish a scholarship in your loved one’s name, supporting future generations of students.

Having a bench dedicated to my late husband on campus has been a source of comfort and pride for our family. It’s a beautiful way to keep his memory alive and connected to the place he loved. It is also the only local memorial for the family to visit to remember him.
