Date of photograph and sources of information relating to date and the history of this building supplied by John Webster, January 2009. The two storied wing was built as St Mary's School which opened in 1849. This was built of localy quarried bluestone. St Mary's school closed in the late 19th century, and reopened in 1894 as St Joseph's Industrial School and Orphanage for boys under the care of the Sisters of Mercy. In 1923 a fire gutted the building leaving the walls standing. It was rebuilt and a three storied wing was added, both the old and the new buildings were faced with a plaster finish. It reopened in 1924 which was when this photograph was taken. What are possibly builders huts can be seen at the near left hand corner of the new wing. The building still stands today (2009).
