About the project
We upgraded the play yard to make it more accessible and to encourage a wider variety of activities. This allows the space to grow with the children, and for children with additional needs to play safely.
In Round 1 of the 2020–21 Building Blocks Improvement Grant, $77,808 was allocated to this project.

About the project
The City of Whittlesea has built Orchard Road Community and Early Learning Centre, a new Integrated Children's Centre.
Orchard Road Community and Early Learning Centre will be a one-stop shop for young families in the northern suburbs, with kindergarten services, maternal and child health services, early intervention services and meeting rooms for parent support groups, playgroups and other child and family services.
The centre opened in the middle of 2017, with the Kindergarten program then starting in 2018.
As part of the 2016–17 Children's Facilities Capital Program Major Grants, $1.6 million has been allocated to the Integrated Children's Centre.
