Our History

St Matts has a long rich history. St Matts has been part of the Botany community for over 160 years. The old church building was built in 1862. A lot has changed in Botany in that time, but in many ways the life-changing message of Jesus is still what St Matts is on about.

In 2011, a group of 35 adults and 20 children from Wild Street Anglican church in Maroubra, planted a church in Botany Public School committed to seeing a growing, vibrant church in Botany. In 2014, this group moved into the St Matts Building.
