Welcome to Banksia Gardens Community Centre!
Banksia Gardens Community Centre is one of approximately 370 Neighbourhood Houses in Victoria. Our organisation is located in close proximity to the Banksia Gardens public housing estate in Broadmeadows, in the City of Hume.
As a neighbourhood house and a Learn Local provider, Banksia Gardens has a strong focus on community education and lifelong learning. Like many other neighbourhood houses, we are also home to a great diversity of groups and associations who gather for different purposes, and we act as a place of support in our local neighbourhood. Importantly, in an area of significant disadvantage, we are committed to social justice and to community development, but also to economic participation, and for that we try to maintain an innovative and dynamic entrepreneurial attitude.
