Statement of Significance

St Teresa’s has social significance for those members of the Catholic community who have worshipped at the place, or celebrated significant events there. It continues to have social significance for the users of the Hall.

Physical Description

A brick and corrugated cement roofed hall, formerly used as a church.

History

During the 1960s Coolbellup’s population grew quickly with families moving into modern brick houses on large blocks provided at low cost loans by the state government. A number of flats were constructed in the area, and a shopping area was constructed in the middle of the suburb.
St Teresa’s was built in 1960, but when new Catholic churches were built at Hilton and Yangebup, it was decided that a Catholic church in Coolbellup was no longer needed. Saint Teresa's ceased services in 1999, and the building remains church property and is used as a community hall.
