Rockdale, St Joseph's Catholic Church

St Joseph's Catholic Church is located on the corner of Walz Street and Parker Street, in the southern suburb of Rockdale. It stand beside St Josephs Primary School which was built in 1929, originally as a church and school. When the school needed to expand, this new church was built alongside it in 1967.

  2. Not a building that apeals to me, looks rather blocky and ugly for a church

    1. It sure is, Jocelyn. We're right in the middle of a heatwave and there are some record high temperatures predicted for today, especially in other parts of Australia.

  9. What an unique looking church, I like it. The blue sky you can't beat it, we hardly have one that's so blue.

  10. Not my idea of what a church would look like...main thing though that it is functional. What is that pole structure in the front?

    1. Stanley, I suppose it's a modern idea of a spire with a crucifix on top.
