Doveton’s new community hub is set to be formally launched at a community event on Saturday 25 May.
The $5.27 million Autumn Place Community Hub includes a redeveloped kindergarten with outdoor play spaces, two maternal and child health consulting rooms and a multi-purpose room, kitchen and courtyard.
It also includes an improved outdoors park, playground and barbecue area.
The celebrations on 25 May include free family activities, a sausage sizzle, face painting and a mobile animal farm.
Casey mayor Amanda Stapledon said the integrated community hub in the “heart of Doveton” was a place for residents to “meet, learn, play, socialise and connect”.
Councillors Wayne Smith and Damien Rosario encouraged the local community to join the celebrations.
“We’re proud of the revitalisation that has occurred in Doveton’s town centre and look forward to celebrating these recent upgrades, which make it a more inviting and well-utilised space,” Cr Rosario said.
The State Government contributed $3.6 million to the project, with Casey funding the remaining $1.67 million.
The celebration is at the hub, 29 Autumn Place, Doveton on Saturday 25 May 11am-1pm.
