The Habonim Community Centre is a "Place of Assembly". Our project is designed to maximise the use and function of this space. The Habonim Hall and outdoor recreational grounds are currently not able to be fully utilised as they are both in a state of disrepair (fencing, boundary retaining walls, landscaping, uneven surfaces) and the large hall’s internal acoustics and sound suppression are inadequate for more regular use by community groups. Once complete, use by a broad range of community groups including the local school, dance and music groups, social sports, informal education and community festivals will significantly increase.

Rectifying the current state of disrepair of the Habonim Community Centre will remove an eyesore from the community and significantly improve its usability thereby meeting the increasing demand from the community for a local venue to house music, dance, informal education and social sports activities and for festival space.. The outdoor recreation area has a damaged and uneven surface and no landscape buffering for both visual and sound absorption amenity. The large community hall does not have suitable acoustic treatment for users (echo and reverberation) and neighbours’ (sound suppression). This project enables substantial increase in community use of the Centre.

A Community Hall for over 50 years. An under-utilised Community asset with so much potential.
