The place is significant as a place of religious worship. The architecture is an example of the work of Costello.
A red brick construction with a tiled roof with gables at the front and rear. The front has a gabled entry. The building is relatively austere, with standard rectangular shaped double hung windows, and no decorative elements on the exterior.
The Catholic Church first used the Memorial Hall for worship, and acquired that place in 1933. When they sold the Memorial Hall in 1950, plans were underway to construct St Theresa's Church. It was constructed for a cost of £6000. Stan Costello and his father Horace undertook many commissions for the Catholic Church throughout the state. On 11 March 1956, the Most Reverend Redmond Prindiville, the ArchBishop of Perth, blessed and opened the church.
