21 Coral Street (corner of Coral and Oak Streets - see in a map). Fundraising to build a church began in 1933. It was designed by architect Vibert McKirdy Brown of Cairns, who also designed Atherton’s St Joseph Church, many of the hospital buildings there in the 1920-30s, the Tinaroo Shire Council Chambers (1928) and Grand Hotel (1933), Mareeba’s St Thomas of Villanova Church (1937) and Fire Station (1939), and Ravenshoe’s original St Teresa’s Church (1937). St Rita’s Church was then built by Mr A. Simpson, also of Cairns, and was blessed and opened by Bishop John Heavey on Sunday 26 Sep 1937. It was later extended.
