Australian Service Nurses National Memorial

[1] The street is named for Patricia Violet Slater who was a lieutenant during World War Two.

Etched and cast into the inner walls are text and images, in a timeline sequence, portraying the history and contribution of Australian Service Nursing.

The memorial also incorporates a collage of pictures and diary entries in the original handwriting.

Some panels are blank, symbolic of the inconclusive nature of any memorial to a service group.

A contemplative space surrounded with rosemary (for remembrance) has a reflective pool fountain and the symbols of the armed forces.
