After widespread community consultation, Wyndham council has endorsed the name of the new community centre on Holyoake Parade.
The preferred name, Marna Family Centre, will undertake a 30 day public exhibition period before council can adopt the name.
The centre will provide the community with a three-and-four-year old kindergarten, maternal and child health services, a toy library and allied health and other family services.
Wyndham residents will be able to have their say on Wyndham council’s ‘Living Your Best Life In Wyndham’ framework, which aims to identify community needs and expectations.
The document will guide how Wyndham council acknowledges the challenges in a growing community, barrieres individuals may ace in accessing services and the need to work with local and other providers.
The draft was developed following a three month community engagement process which included feedback from 121 survey respondents and 500 place-based community sessions.
