One of the largest-scale projects of remembrance the Knox community has ever seen is now available to own on DVD.
‘For School and Country’ is a five-part documentary miniseries that chronicles the lives of twelve Knox Old boys who answered the call of war in 1939 by putting down their school books and taking up arms.
The documentary premiered at the school in 2015 to a rousing reception, honouring the lives and service of the dozen profiled Knox World War II veterans.
‘For School and Country’ was produced by a team of Knox Old Boys working under the banner of 'Thistle Productions', in close association with the OKGA, the school and the Australian War Memorial. The DVD box-set is available now for all to purchase. Know their stories. Remember them.

“Hello everyone. For those who don’t know me, my name is William. I’m a Year 12 student here at Knox – and I’m also a proud Trawlwoolway man from the northeast of Tasmania. This year’s NAIDOC Week is special. Not just because it’s a celebration, but because this year marks 50 years of NAIDOC. That’s 50 years of truth-telling. 50 years of strength. 50 years of celebrating Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people’s identity and resistance.”
