Designed by Gilbert Gardner, the simplicity of style has been described as ‘Californian Romanesque’. The church opened on February 18th 1937.The entrance was originally on the South side where the statue of the Sacred Heart now stands.The existing Altar and Lectern, in French limestone, were executed by Geoff Coppock (1980) and stone coping over the windows was completed in 1981. The baptismal font was repositioned and the porch where the baptistery used to be was opened up in 1982. A new boundary wall dates from 1983 and most of the existing garden was designed by Nicholas and Pam Coote in 1985.
