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 group that has been contributing to the local community for decades. It’s time for Councils to help upgrade facilities

Today, youth require a space to play outdoors away from technology. Good old fashion fun to socialize, build confidence and be mentored by leaders dedicated to making a difference. This project is important in attracting new youth, providing safer and feel happy facilities benefiting many in the area.

Great to see a longstanding community group respecting neighbourhood amenity with acoustic treatments and landscape buffering.

Will be a vast improvement to the current streetscape.

Let's get this done !!!
