Efforts to organise a Presbyterian Church in Caulfield are meeting with success. The Sunday evening services are held in the Courtroom, Caulfield Town Hall, and are conducted by the Rev. A. Hardie. Tenders have been called for the building of a church hall and kindergarten room in Neerim road. The site at the corner of Bambra road and Neerim road is reserved for the church.
