Keysborough South experienced significant population growth from 2012 to 2019 - from 5,516 residents to 11,838. This population surge led to a substantial demand for community services, particularly early childhood services. The local community was invited to have their say on the Hub’s vision statement and provide input into what programs and activities they would like.
The City of Greater Dandenong engaged our architectural team in the Melbourne studio to design and deliver an integrated and cohesive Early Learning Centre. The core components of this 5 Star Green Star Design awarded rating project are:
The overall building encompasses 2007 m2 of undercover space plus extensive licensed outdoor play areas for the early years programme and separate public open space in the form of a community playground and open space. An on grade car park will also be provided. The project targets net zero emissions as part of the design and delivery.
