The parish website notes, 'The foundation stone for Our Lady of Victories Church was laid on the 15th August 1953. The design of the church was considered to be very modern at the time. The church was blessed and opened by Archbishop Prendiville on the 15th August 1954. Being the first building in W.A. in which pre-pressed concrete arches were utilized, this detail won very favourable comment.'
