Summary

A history of St. Catherine's School in Heyington Place, Toorak - one of Australia's finest independent girls' schools. It was opened in 1896. The school passed in 1903 to the Langley sisters, daughters of the Anglican Bishop of Bendigo, who re-named it St. Catherine's, after their old school in Sydney. In 1920 Flora Templeton became co-principal with Ruth Langley when the school re-established itself in Melbourne. Ruth and her sister, Hilda, are both buried in Box Hill Cemetery.
