A sandstone Gothic Revival monument in commemoration of the first Christian service held in Australia (3 February 1788). The form is capped cruciform Gothic buttresses with finials and surmounted by a Crucifix.

The monument is situated within Richard Johnson Square which is on the site of the first Church built in Australia, opened on 23 August 1793.

17.01.2022 TODAY IN HISTORY Sunday, September 24, 1493. : Christopher Columbus departs on his second voyage to the "New World". Christopher Columbus is believed to have been born circa 30 October 1451: there is some doubt as to his actual country and region of birth. Columbus was determined to pioneer a western sea route to China, India, and the fabled gold and spice islands of Asia. On 3 August 1492 Columbus set sail from Palos, Spain, with three small ships, the Santa Marýa, t...he Pinta, and the Niña. During his journeys, Columbus explored the West Indies, South America, and Central America. He became the first explorer and trader to cross the Atlantic Ocean and sight the land of the Americas, on 12 October 1492, under the flag of Castile, a former kingdom of modern day Spain. It is most probable that the land he first sighted was Watling Island in the Bahamas. Columbus returned to Spain laden with gold and new discoveries from his travels, including the previously unknown tobacco plant and the pineapple fruit. The success of his first expedition prompted his commissioning for a second voyage to the New World, and he set out from Cýdiz on 24 September 1493. He explored Cuba, Jamaica, Puerto Rico and various smaller Caribbean islands, and further ensuing explorations yielded discoveries such as Venezuela. Through all this, Columbus believed that he was travelling to parts of Asia. He believed Hispaniola was Japan, and that the peaks of Cuba were the Himalayas of India.

09.01.2022 TODAY IN HISTORY Tuesday, October 1, 1850. : Australia's first University, the University of Sydney, is founded. The University of Sydney is Australia’s oldest university. Located in Sydney’s inner city, the university has expanded to establish a number of campuses around Sydney, as well as the One Tree Island Research Station on the Great Barrier Reef.... The University of Sydney’s progressive ideas were due largely to the influence of statesman William Charles Wentworth. Wentworth believed that students should be admitted based on their academic aptitude, rather than class or religion, as was the case in England. Born to a convict woman on the Second Fleet, Wentworth was educated in England, as his father was Dr D'Arcy Wentworth, whose patron and kinsman was Lord Fitzwilliam. William Wentworth understood the limitations of a society based on class. As a "Currency Lad", one of the first children born into the colony of New South Wales, Wentworth enjoyed his status as different from the "English ascendancy," and was an outspoken nationalist, determined to gain civil rights for those who, like himself, were very much in the minority. As well as being a leading figure in the establishment of the first university in any of the colonies of Australia and Oceania, Wentworth was also instrumental in establishing the first real system of state primary education in New South Wales. Founded on 1 October 1850, The University of Sydney opened its doors to students in 1852, and the first degrees were awarded in 1856. In 1881, it became one of the first universities in the world to allow women to enrol.
