The origin of the church, which is dedicated to all saints, is said to date back to the late 19th century when two acres were set aside for its construction from the 20 acres allocated to Campbell Park. The architecture of the church is likened to 13th century Gothic style, with high characteristic vaults, but modified to suit the local climate. Inside, the church is well lit and spacious, and when sunlight catches the many stained glass windows, colourful bands are cast throughout its peaceful interior.
