Woolwich, Marist Sisters' Convent

The former Marist Sisters' Convent is located along Woolwich Road in the lower north shore suburb of Woolwich. It was built in 1908 in the Federation architectural style and is now part of the Marist Sisters' College, a Catholic secondary school for girls.

  2. Federation shape exactly, but the surface material looks a bit.... Mexican perhaps? Love it!
