Default Found some buttons, please help.

Hello all, I'm new to the forum, metal detecting is one of my hobbies and recently I have manage to unearth a couple of what I believe to be military buttons. All buttons were found in different parks within the CBD of the city of Adelaide, South Australia.

I'm just looking for any information on the buttons as I have very little military knowledge. I don't expect the buttons to be rare orworth a fortune but they are interesting to me all the same.

The anchor button is backmarked Goy & Co 36 Leadenhall St

The buttonwith the 40 reads Smith Kemp Wright, Birmingham on the back.

The silver coloured one which I doubt to be military, maybe a school or university reads Stokes and Sons Melb and is much more modern.

I would appreciate any info at all.

Thank You
Brendon.
