Annual General Meeting

The President and Committee of Governance of the Balwyn Community Centre invite you to attend our 2025 Annual General Meeting on Tuesday 28 October at 11.00am. A light lunch will be served after the meeting.

Join Our Community Garage Sale!

Is it time for a clean out? Love the idea of a garage sale but don’t want people coming to your house? We have the perfect solution — host a stall at the Balwyn Community Centre Garage Sale this November!

We’ll promote the event and provide you with a table — all you need to do is bring along your pre-loved treasures. It’s a great way to clear out your cupboards, make a bit of extra cash, and enjoy a fun day out. Plus, it’s the perfect chance to meet local shoppers and be part of a lively community event.

Sunday 16 November, 9:00am – 1:00pm

Prefer to shop instead of sell? Pop the date in your diary and come along to browse the bargains — we can’t wait to see you there!
