New multipurpose auditorium opens in Cardinia, Victoria

Thursday, 4 March 2010

The Cardinia community in South East Melbourne has celebrated the opening of their new Bunyip Sports Multipurpose Auditorium as well as the completion of four additional local community infrastructure projects.

The new auditorium and four new projects were funded with $1.1 million provided under the Regional and Local Community Infrastructure Program, a key component of the Government’s Nation Building-Economic Stimulus Plan.

The new multipurpose auditorium includes seating for 250 people, basketball and netball courts, a portable stage and kitchen. The new facility has been fully landscaped and allows for disabled access.

It is expected the auditorium will attract high level sporting events and in the longer-term increase tourism and create economic and health benefits for users and the broader Cardinia community.

The four other completed projects include the Beaconsfield Recreation Reserve Upgrade, the Gembrook Community Centre, the Koo Wee Rup Streetscape project and the Koo Wee Rup Trail and Park upgrade.
