A bit of history...
The design of Our Lady of Lourdes Church continues the pre-war tradition of brick churches on a longitudinal plan with simple basilican form. It is a well-detailed building with a tall landmark tower.
The church was designed by architect LAG Pritchard replacing a temporary church built in 1931 to serve the rapidly-expanding area. The land for the present building was donated by the Weld-Blundell estate and the church was opened in 1956.
