Name of Catholic College in Perth?

Question

Does anyone remember the name of the Catholic College located on Albany Highway, Victoria Park, Perth. I think it is nowadays called Ursula Frayne, but what was it before that?

Answer 1

The origins of the present day Ursula Frayne Catholic College can be traced back to 1899 when a group of Sisters of Mercy, led by Mother M Clare Buggy, left from Derry, Northern Ireland for the shores of Western Australia. Their first school was established in a wooden cottage on the current site of the Duncan Street Campus and was known as St Joachim's. In 1926 the Sisters commenced a secondary school under the name of Our Lady of Mercy College.
