In 2019, The Loreto Provincial Archives and the Mary’s Mount Ballarat Archives hosted me for two weeks in the Loreto Archives Centre, Sturt St., Ballarat. My hosts were Robin Scott, Loreto Provincial Archivist and Matthew Roberts, Loreto College Ballarat Archivist. The following guide resulted from a project dimension of a practicum for the Graduate Diploma in Records Management and Archives at Curtin University, Western Australia. I am grateful to both Robin Scott and Matthew Roberts for being generous hosts and professional mentors.
Using this guide.
Although situated in repositories separated by two thousand kilometres, the archival collections of Loreto Coorparoo and the Loreto Province, Ballarat can be understood as parts of the one collection. This guide has been created to promote this understanding and to support collaboration between those archives.
The Loreto College electronic Library catalogue, “Oliver” lists and describes the Archival Collection held at Loreto Coorparoo archives. This guide augments that catalogue by listing and describing records relevant to Loreto College Coorparoo held in the Loreto Provincial Archives at Ballarat.
This guide aims to describe and facilitate access to records held in the Loreto Provincial Archives that deal with Loreto Coorparoo, Queensland. The guide describes seven Series of records referencing Loreto Coorparoo, held in the Loreto Provincial Archives.

Loreto College Coorparoo
Loreto College Coorparoo opened in 1928 in a house, “Kemendine”, purchased for the Loreto Sisters by Archbishop Duhig. Purchased from the Deshon family, the 1889 house sat on a hilltop approximately 6kms from the city centre. In September 1927, two Loreto Sisters visited Brisbane and agreed to establish a school on the site in Cavendish Rd. In December 1927, six Loreto Sisters came and prepared the house. In January, these six sisters returned south, before being replaced by five sisters who constituted the first Loreto community at Coorparoo. The Sisters purchased the house and 3 acres of land for 4,500 pounds. Until its demolition in 1977, Kemendine was known as the “Pink Building”, because of its distinctive colour.
1931. IBVM community on verandah of Kemendine
The unusually named “Casket Building”, the oldest extant Loreto Coorparoo building, stands in the middle of the school’s grounds. The ground and first floor of the building were built in 1931 adjacent to the pre-existing “Kemendine”. The third floor was added in 1933:

The naming of the “Casket Building” resulted from the 5000 pounds winning proceeds of the Golden Casket in 1929 that paid for its’ construction. The winning ticket had been gifted to the Sisters by Alice Cummins, a past pupil from Loreto Adelaide and a friend of Mother Crescentia Collins, Superior of the Coorparoo community of Loreto Sisters. Loreto College Coorparoo commenced in February 1928 with an enrolment of seven students, increasing to 42 (pictured below) by 1932.
At the beginning of 1942, the school evacuated to Glen Innes for wartime security reasons and the school became a wartime convalescent hospital for soldiers.
