History and Architecture:

Formerly a Presbyterian Church. In 1865 the first Presbyterian church services were held in the old Euroa school house and later incorporated in the Church of England rectory.

The first church was erected in 1881 in Foy Street. The current church was built in 1889 by Gordon and Duncan and cost £600 while the Sunday School hall was erected in 1911 by James O'Neill. The architect was F.H. Parson's. The Foundation stone was laid by the Moderator of the Presbytery in March 1911.

A new building erected between the hall and church on the northern side of the block became the kindergarten section of the Sunday School, and was opened in 1957 free of debt.
