The Park Orchards Neighbourhood House and Community Centre has been prioritised for renewal. The building is old, not very accessible, and will not be able to keep up with future demand.

We're considering several locations for the future development of a centre that would provide various learning and training services in one place.

The facility would encourage more people to get involved in community programs and activities and provide more opportunities for intergenerational learning.

This is a project identified within our Community Infrastructure Plan.

As part of this project, we've been consulting with community groups in and around the Reserve. We're now preparing a report with recommendations for the Centre's future. Next year, we'll present a draft report to Council for endorsement, and then to the community for consultation.

We'll actively support the Park Orchards Neighbourhood House and Learning Centre in finding various funding sources for the redevelopment of this facility.

    We have now completed our consultation with the services in and around Park Orchards Reserve. These sessions provided an opportunity to discuss the existing infrastructure, service provision, service requirements, and aspirations to meet future demand.

    We will now take some time to compile consultations and engagement findings and develop a needs analysis to complete phase one of the project.

    We'd like to take this opportunity to thank all the staff and volunteers who gave us their time to help us better understand the fantastic work they do for the Park Orchards community.

    We'll provide another update, either later this year or early next year, to inform you of the findings to date.

    In the meantime, if you have any questions about this project, contact us on 9840 9333 or at manningham@manningham.vic.gov.au.
