The first Mass at The Entrance was celebrated in the home of Mr George Taylor in the 1860s. The first church building was opened on Christmas Day 1925. The present church building was opened and blessed in December 1962 by Archbishop James Carroll. The Our Lady of the Rosary Parish was established in July1947. Over the years many additions and alterations were made to the buildings to meet the needs of the congregation.
