Summer Learning Journey (W2) (Day One)
Activity 1. St Joseph’s Cathedral
At the turn of the century, there was a great deal of construction happening in New Zealand. Many of the new British settlers wanted to build homes and community meeting places, such as churches. One of the largest buildings to be constructed during this period was St Joseph’s Cathedral in Dunedin
St Joseph’s Cathedral is just one of hundreds of beautiful cathedrals around the world.

Hi Catrin
ReplyDeleteThis is a beautiful cathedral! It is simple quite stunning.
It's crazy that it didn't really take that long to build. Only from 1555 to 1561.
I really like the shape of the cathedral, it's not like anything we would have here in New Zealand.
I wonder what it looks like on the inside? I might have to just go and see if I can see for myself.
Do you think you would like to visit here one day?
I think if I was in Russia I would definitely go and have a look around.
Well done Catrin
Until next time
Allie :)
