<p>An image of the Catholic Education Centre on Ruislip Street in West Leederville, an inner-city suburb of Perth, Western Australia. The buildings that make up the Catholic Education Centre were once known as the Home Of The Good Shepherd and were run by the Sisters of the Good Shepherd. The building in this image was constructed in 1908 as an 'Industrial Home' for juvenile female 'delinquents' and remained as this until 1979. The photograph shows the Gothic Revival style of much of the building, including a prominent square tower, buttresses, decorative pointed finials, lancet windows, and a large pointed arch window with tracery.</p>

This photograph shows the tower of the Perth Institute of Contemporary Art in the Perth Cultural Centre. The building, opened in 1897 and designed by William Atkins, was originally the Perth Boys’ and Girls’ School, and was often referred to as Perth Central School. The central red brick tower with a pitched corrugated roof and arched upper windows is in the Romanesque style. A medieval example of this style of tower, but with fewer arched windows, was found at the front of Cluny Abbey III in France, built in 1088.

An image of St. Patrick's Convent School located on South Street in York, a town ninety minutes south east of Perth in Western Australia.
The school was built in 1873 by Father Patrick Gibney for the Sisters of Mercy. The Sisters of Mercy taught children of all ages, as well as music, reading and writing for young adults. When they left York, it was converted into one of the oldest libraries in WA. This building embodies features that are typically characteristic of the Gothic Revival style of architecture, which was popular in the United Kingdom, Australia and other British colonies in the nineteenth century. As an architectural style, it is based on the close examination of medieval structures, and a concern with 'authenticity' of design. This style is often symbolic of conservative qualities such as, continuity, stability, religious authority and tradition.
At present, the building is privately owned and opens as an Antique shop on weekends.
