… five signage soundposts located in the garden behind the Doncaster RSL memorial wall. Tags Our History … Doncaster RSL soundposts …
Since its start in 1919 the Doncaster Returned and Services League (RSL) has supported people who have served or are serving in the Australian Defence Force.
The Doncaster RSL Sub-branch has served its local community for over one hundred years.
Among other things, the RSL helped create service, disability and war widow pensions, employment and retraining programs, child health programs and vocational guidance services. In many ways, the RSL was the first national welfare agency in Australia. Welfare continues to be its top priority today.
New club rooms
New club rooms were built on the corner of Doncaster Road and Leeds Street in 1953. A number of changes over the years have added to the venue’s symbolic importance. These changes include moving the WWI memorial wall in 1999 from the Athanaeum Hall and incorporating it into the WWII memorial, the addition of two wings to this memorial wall in 2001, the refurbishment of the front landscape in 2019, and the activation of the outdoor space behind the memorial wall in 2020.
Museum
There is also museum located at the Doncaster RSL Sub-branch which includes artefacts and books from the Boer War, WWI, WWII, the Korean and Vietnam wars, and East Timor conflict. The collection also features Honour boards, maps, photographs, reproduction paintings, newspapers, diaries, badges, medals, weapons, uniform embellishments, jackets and headgear.
Both outdoor areas received funding from the Victorian Government through the Victoria Remembers Grant Program. This was to help communities make personal connections with the Centenary of World War I, and assist projects or activities that commemorate other wars, conflicts and peacekeeping operations in which Victorians have served.
Both areas:
- raise awareness of the contribution of Victorian veterans, past and present, through diverse, inclusive and educational projects and activities
- encourage direct participation and engagement, in learning more about past conflicts and the role of veterans
- provide social and cultural benefits to the community
- leave a legacy for future generations.
Light sculpture
A red poppy light sculpture was installed behind the memorial wall in June 2020.
Soundposts
The five signage soundposts located in the garden behind the memorial wall include information on the following themes:
- Doncaster RSL history
- nurses in combat zones
- Vietnam Veterans stories and war
- WWI and WWII
- Indigenous service stories.

History of the Doncaster East Avenue of Honour
The Doncaster East Avenue of Honour was first planted in around 1920 by the pupils of East Doncaster State School.
It was planted to honour the past pupils, relatives and friends who served in the Great War of 1914-18.
The original Avenue of Honour for Doncaster East was a row of Mahogany Gums planted along Blackburn Road. It began near May Street and continued past the school to Saxonwood Drive.
By the 1970s an extra lane was needed along Blackburn Road due to increased traffic, and the Mahogany Gums were removed. To replace these trees, a new Avenue of Honour was planted along Saxonwood Drive in 1975 using Queensland Brush Box.
Commemorating fallen soldiers after the war
After The Great War ended, war memorials and honour boards were created throughout Victoria. The honour board for this Avenue of Honour is located within the RSL Doncaster Sub-Branch.
Planting Avenues of Honour captured the imaginations of Victorians.
- These avenues existed almost nowhere else in the world apart from Australia
- Over half of the 547 known avenues are located in Victoria
Planting trees gave grieving families and communities tangible memorials to loved ones. With their actual graves out of reach on the other side of the world, each tree represented a fallen soldier.
You can contemplate their sacrifice as you walk along Saxonwood Drive, where their names are laid out next to the path.

… Find out about design principles and guidelines for Doncaster Hill Doncaster Hill Property and Development … Construction specifications for the boulevard in Doncaster Hill …
A major urban design vision for Doncaster Hill is to develop a strong boulevard character along Doncaster Road, Williamsons Road and Tram Road and active street frontages along Doncaster Road and Williamson Road. Active street frontage areas will be the focal point for vibrant entertainment strips including café and leisure activities focusing on the length of Doncaster Road between Tram Road and the Civic Precinct.
Design principles and guidelines
The boulevard character will be supported by formal tree planting and a well defined built edge, with various pedestrian-generating and retail activities encouraged at street level.
A podium of at least 12 metres height shall be provided along the Boulevard frontages to achieve a consistent scale at street level.
Developments shall provide a uniform 5 metre setback to a podium from their street frontages in support of the boulevard and roadside planting, ceding 2 metres of land to Council ownership.
Vehicle crossings of pedestrian footpaths should be restricted to the minimum necessary to access the site. Pedestrian amenity should be considered a priority in developing appropriate pedestrian and vehicular networks.
Access to sunlight is an important consideration for boulevard areas. It must be demonstrated that the sun can penetrate onto the properties on the south side of Doncaster Boulevard from the building edge to the footpath (and not less than 1.2 metres south of the back of kerb) between 11.30am and 1.30pm at the winter solstice on June 22nd.
Developments shall incorporate high quality, contemporary street furniture and furnishings that contribute to the vibrant character of Doncaster Hill, subject to Council approval.
Boulevard landscape treatment
Landscape treatment of the ceded land and balance of street frontage area (to the back of kerb) shall be in accordance with the standard detail shown below, and carried out by the developer as part of the building development works.
The landscape treatment includes the construction of a 3.6 metre wide paved promenade along both sides of Doncaster Boulevard, Williamsons Road and Tram Road to encourage pedestrian activity, and two staggered avenues of deciduous trees planted at 12-15 metre spacings to the satisfaction of the Responsible
Authority
The promenades are to be reduced to 2.0 metres wide in gateway locations where a transition is required between the 3.6 metre wide path, and existing paths.
The specified species are the ‘Autumn Glory’ Plane tree at 3.5metres off-set from the building, and the ‘Chanticleer’ Pear planted at 1.8 metres from the kerb. Specified species are to be a minimum of 3.5 metres in height at the time of planting.
Basement car parking should be sufficiently set back from the tree alignment to allow for healthy root establishment.
A good quality tree grate (‘Gatic’ 874 x 874) and suitable root barrier are to be installed with each tree.
We will also plant trees where possible in the central road median.
The paving material selected for the Boulevards, side streets and other pedestrian spaces is Quartstone ‘Blue Onyx Honed’ 300 x 300 pavers Headers shall comprise Urbanstone shotblast Terracolour (Code 1563) 298.5 x 298.5 mm pavers.
The pavement is to be laid on a 75mm depth concrete base and nominal 30mm mortar bed. Where the pavement crosses vehicular crossing points, it is to be laid on a 150mm 20Mpa concrete slab ( with F82 centrally placed ) on a 50mm FCR
Class4 subgrade
The 3 metre-wide street frontage areas between the new paved promenade and the front wall of the building will comprise a mix of hard and soft landscape treatment dependant upon the adjoining land use. The street frontage area should not be used for commercial display purposes. Paved areas within the 3 metre strip may incorporate outdoor seating and suitable glazed screens (of a type to be approved by Council) having regard to statutory requirements. Planting, grassed areas and paving works within the frontage areas and side streets should complement the boulevard landscape treatment. Strong architectural plants, either exotic or native, are suitable in these locations.
There may be opportunities to incorporate, integrated artwork within the street frontage area in liaison with the Doncaster Hill Public Art Advisory Committee.
Weather protection shall be provided at important pedestrian nodes along the Boulevards, including pedestrian crossing points.
A standard suite of street furniture including seating, vehicular and pedestrian lighting, rubbish containers, bollards and bicycle hoops will be specified by Council.
