Our Lady Star of the Sea

The original church was built in 1863 and was in use until 1992. St Mary MacKillop visited and then established a school there in 1891. The present church was dedicated in December 1992 and involved a generous input by local businesses and individual volunteers as well as a substantial loan from the Catholic Development Fund.

A small group of parishioners then undertook the enormous task of restoring the old church. With the help of some grants and community assistance the restoration was completed and the building has been renamed MacKillop Hall in honour of St Mary. It is an official pilgrimage site, opened each day from 9.00am to 4.00pm.
