Mary MacKillop is Australia’s first Saint. A co-founder of the Sisters of Saint Joseph, she founded the first St Joseph’s School in Victoria and the first school in Numurkah in 1890. In December 2024, Numurkah parishioners celebrated the opening of an indigenous garden and history trail dedicated to the memory of Mary MacKillop and the Josephite Sisters who have served their community so well.
