| DESCRIPTION |
| Details (Known As) |
Star of the Sea Catholic Chapel and Schoolroom |
| Registered Name |
St Mary's Star of the Sea Catholic Church |
| Significance |
St Mary's Star of the Sea Catholic Church demonstrates the origins and expansion of Catholicism throughout South Australia during the first few decades of the colony. As the chapel also housed a Catholic primary school run by the Sisters of Saint Joseph from around 1869 to 1880, it is also associated with the origins of independent Catholic education in South Australia and with the first wave of Josephite schools that emerged in the 1860s. Additionally, it reflects the social and cultural development of a key government town and port in the mid-nineteenth century. |
