The Mortdale-Oatley Baptist Church is located on the corner of Boundary Road and Woronora Parade, in the southern suburb of Oatley. The Mortdale Baptist Church dates back to 1896 when it began as the Mortdale Mission, with services held in a small wooden hall known as the ‘Hut’ in Morts Road at neighbouring Mortdale. The church has been at this site in Oatley since 1919 but only became known as the Mortdale-Oatley Baptist Church in 1998. In these days of dwindling church attendances, mergers of parishes and church closures, some churches are using these sorts of trendy signs with catchy slogans and websites as advertisements to attract parishioners.

Oatley Park Baths, Georges River
This view of the Oatley Park Baths and the Georges River is from Sandy Beach on Oatley Bay. The baths were originally constructed in 1909 and are still utilised by the Oatley Amateur Swimming Club which was established in 1927. The pontoon is an ideal resting spot in the middle of the netted area. In the distance, a train crosses the Como Bridge linking the southern suburbs of Oatley and Como.
