What do a sumo wrestle, a chicken and a taekwondo expert have in common?

They were all at the second annual North Melbourne Community Centre Open Day on Thursday 4 October 2012!

The Open Day was an excellent chance to meet many new people in the community.
With various activities, including face painting, crafts-making, taekwondo class and a petting zoo, there was something for everyone to enjoy.

At the Doutta Galla stand, staff spoke about the range of Doutta Galla community and health services.

The event, which was held at the community centre on Buncle Street, also showcased the centre’s regular services, including a health club, a sports centre and other community programs.

Event partners included Doutta Galla Community Health, YMCA and City of Melbourne (CoM) Family Support and Counselling.
