History and Architecture:

The history of St Bernadette’s parish began in Baulkham Hills, in the year 1849. For “Ten Pounds of Lawful British Money”, a contract was signed and sealed for the purchase of one and a half acres of land on the New Windsor Road which was to be the site for the first St Michael’s Church.

In 1948 the purchase of seven acres (2.83 hectares) of land on Old Northern Road for £3,500 occurred.
