History and Architecture:

The initial land offered by the Archbishop was too small for a church and school. A local Catholic, Mrs E Clugston, donated a property which she owned and the Archbishop purchased 2 adjoining acres to provide a suitable area.

The Church was blessed and opened on Sunday August 9, 1908.

In 1913 St John the Baptist became a parish with Father Michael Gallagher as Parish Priest. He lived in the presbytery at Red Hill and travelled to Enoggera for Masses.
