Coromandel Valley is a south-eastern suburb of Adelaide, South Australia. Part is in the City of Mitcham and the City of Onkaparinga with the Sturt River〔(City of Mitcham: Community Profile )〕 being the boundary between the two council areas. Coromandel Valley, and its neighbouring suburb, Coromandel East, gain their name from a ship, the ''Coromandel'', which arrived in Holdfast Bay from London in 1837 with 156 English settlers. After the ship reached the shore, some of its sailors deserted, intending to remain behind in South Australia, and took refuge in the hills in the Coromandel Valley region. The Coromandel Valley Primary School, established in 1877, is one of the oldest in South Australia. Adjacent to the school is the original St John's Anglican Church, built with local stone. The parish at various times in the last century included the rural areas from Meadows in the South to Belair in the north. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Coromandel Valley, South Australian History )〕 An important business in the early days was Alex Murray & Son's jam and biscuit factory, which closed around 1902. The (now closed) Coromandel Valley Post Office first opened on 10 July 1850. ==Parks and recreation== *Frank Smith Park, a reserve of approximately 12 hectares including a wetland〔(Frank Smith Park ) page at City of Onkaparinga〕 *Sturt River Linear Park, currently developing *Weymouth Recreation Ground 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Coromandel Valley, South Australia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
