About the memorial: This memorial no longer exists. It was in the original Poole Grammar School building in Seldown Lane in central Poole. It was then moved to the new site at Gravel Hill in 1966. Unfortunately it fell victim to a fire in 1971 and was replaced by a memorial at the new school containing the names on it together with those on the WW1 Poole School cross which is now at St James Church in the Old Town. Readers of this who live locally will be aware that today Poole and Parkstone Grammar Schools are now single sex. (Poole for boys, girls at Parkstone.) However both were co-educational until 1937 which explains why male former pupils of what is now a girls' school were killed in WW2.
