FOUNDATION STONE CEREMONY, ST. SIMON STOCK CHURCH SCHOOL, 1 SEPTEMBER 1957

The foundation stone ceremony marked the beginning of the establishment of the Catholic Church in Pendle Hill (now Greystanes). This would grow to become the parish of Our Lady Queen of Peace, Greystanes, its parish primary school, and what is now St. Pauls Catholic College.
