Presentation SistersPrint Page 
The gates at the front of the church commemorates the work of the Presentation Sisters in Collie from 1902 to 2000. The gates were crafted by Sergio Amadio.
The Presentation Sisters (also known as the Sisters of the Presentation of the Blessed Virgin Mary) are women who belong to a family of Roman Catholic religious orders inspired by or based on the group founded in Ireland by Nano Nagle in 1775. In the past, the Sisters dedicated their time to creating schools that would help to educate young people, especially young ladies. Most of these schools are still in operation and can be found all over the world.
