Article Content

With support from Manningham Council, the new Jackson Court Traders Association has seen the launch of its first initiative – a welcoming new sign at Jackson Court Shopping Centre.

Formed just over a year ago, the Jackson Court Traders Association advocates for its businesses, collaborates with Council, pursues funding opportunities and creates initiatives to promote the popular activity centre.

Jackson Court has more than 90 businesses, making it one of Manningham’s busiest and most vibrant centres. 

The new sign on Doncaster Road is designed to showcase the mix of local businesses and advertise the centre.

Manningham Council supports activity centres with infrastructure upgrades, business support and planning. At Jackson Court, Council helped establish the traders’ association with registration, governance, communication and business development support.

President of the Jackson Court Traders Association, Con Valsamis said the sign brings a new look and increased advertising space for businesses at the centre.

"As a group, we have so many ideas on ways to continue improving this important shopping district. This new signage is a big step towards us achieving these goals,” Mr Valsamis said.

“A big thank you to my fellow committee members for their passion and dedication and to Manningham Council for their support in setting up our traders association.” 

“We want to bring this area to life and really show people what we at Jackson Court have to offer,” Mr Valsamis added. 

You can follow Jackson Court Traders Association on Instagram @jacksoncourt.doncaster.

Sentinel sculpture to be relocated
… iconic ' Sentinel ' sculpture by Inge King is moving to a new, but nearby home. On this page North East Link All News … …
Article Content

Manningham’s iconic ‘Sentinel’ sculpture by Inge King is moving to a new, but nearby home. 

The sculpture was carefully transported into temporary storage as one-piece to allow North East Link Project (NELP) to progress works on the Eastern Freeway upgrades.

Sentinel will return to take pride of place at a suitable gateway location when works at the Doncaster interchange are completed in 2026. It will remain a prominent piece for Manningham to be enjoyed by local community and visitors alike.

Learn more about the relocation of Sentinel.

For NELP construction information and updates, call 1800 105 105 or visit the Big Build website.

Sentinel

Located at the Doncaster Road exit of the Eastern Freeway, Sentinel was conceived as an icon of the City of Manningham – casting a watchful eye over the area. Its curved shapes symbolise the two creeks of the municipality; the Mullum Mullum and the Koonung Creeks. They enclose the blue oval form representing the City of Manningham.

Standing at 13 metres high and weighing 12 tonnes, Sentinel was created by internationally renowned artist and long-term Manningham resident Inge King.

Learn more about Sentinel.

About the artist

“Sculpture is the exploration of form and space, it is a drawing from a thousand different angles” - Inge King (National Gallery of Australia).

A leading Australian sculptor, Inge King AM (1915 – 2016) was pivotal in developing and diversifying sculpture in Australia and worked actively until she was 98 years old.

Born in Berlin, Inge moved to Australia in 1950, creating many iconic public works in Melbourne, Brisbane and Canberra. She was made a Member of the Order of Australia in 1984.

Public toilet installation - Mullum Mullum Trail, Donvale
… - Mullum Mullum Trail, Donvale We propose installing a new public toilet along the Mullum Mullum Trail. On this page …
Article Content

Updated: 17 December 2024

We're installing a new public toilet along the Mullum Mullum Trail.

The new facility will include:

  • One standard cubicle
  • One accessible cubicle
  • Baby and child change facilities
  • A rainwater tank for a natural water supply
  • External and internal powered lighting
  • Skylights for natural lighting
  • A concrete path to connect the toilet to the trail.


Where is it?

The toilet would be installed near the car park at the intersection of Conos Court and Park Road, Donvale.

An extensive investigation determined this as the only suitable site on Council-owned land in the area.

This was for several reasons, including:

  • sufficient space
  • access to essential services
  • adequate parking for users and maintenance vehicles.
     

This location also benefits from passive surveillance due to nearby residents and passing traffic. In an area of secluded bushland, the site is visible and easily accessible to trail users. Additionally, it provides a mid-point facility between the existing toilets at Mullum Mullum Stadium and Schwerkolt Cottage.

 

Why is it needed?

Currently, without a public toilet in this area, visitors are limited in where they can go and how long they can stay. A safe, well maintained, and environmentally friendly toilet would significantly improve the experience for people using the Mullum Mullum Trail.

Find out more about the community consultation completed as part of this project.

This project is part of our Public Toilet Plan 2021.


When will the works happen?

Construction will likely begin in early to mid-2025. This project is part of our 2024/25 Capital Works Program.

Article Content

Here's an update on some recent and upcoming works delivered as part of the Ruffey Lake Park Masterplan. 

New public artwork at Boulevarde Hill 

The new sculpture by Natasha Johns-Messenger was installed in June this year.

Named EllipseCircleView, this artwork draws inspiration from the panoramic views of Ruffey Lake Park. Its simple geometric forms encourage visitors to contemplate their surroundings and appreciate the beauty of the landscape.

Find out more about the artist and artwork.

 

Bridges and boardwalks

Works commencing soon

Starting in October 2024 and continuing through 2025, we’ll be enhancing the pathways around Ruffey Lake Park. These works aim to improve accessibility and connectivity, creating a better experience for park users.

Works will be carried out in stages through 2025, and will include:

King Street pedestrian bridge

We’re building a new bridge across Ruffey Creek to provide a safe and accessible all-weather connection for pedestrians. The bridge will offer an alternative to the existing narrow footpath along King Street.

These works will begin later this month and are expected to be completed in December. This schedule is subject to weather conditions.

King Street underpass widening

We’re widening the existing path under the King Street pedestrian bridge. The upgraded 2.5 metre wide shared path will support pedestrians and cyclists travelling through the area.

These works are scheduled to begin in 2025.

Quarry pedestrian bridge

We’re building a new bridge at the Quarry to provide a safe and accessible path for pedestrians. These works will likely begin in 2025.

Ruffey Lake boardwalk

We’re building a boardwalk along Ruffey Lake to create a safe, accessible, and visually appealing pathway that encourages the community to enjoy the lake and its surroundings.

The boardwalk construction is expected to start in 2025.

We’ll continue to publish updates on the works and schedule on the Ruffey Lake Masterplan Your Say Manningham page – subscribe to receive updates via email.

Aquarena's outdoor redevelopment design is underway
… Aquatic and Leisure Centre will include an exciting new water play area and improved café. On this page All News …
Article Content

An exciting new water play area and improved café will be part of the major redevelopment of the outdoor area at Aquarena Aquatic and Leisure Centre. 

The project's detailed design is now underway, following Council's endorsement of the Aquarena Outdoor Masterplan last August.

Our Mayor, Councillor Carli Lange, said the community is eagerly awaiting the redevelopment, which will bring Aquarena’s outdoor area up to the centre’s modern, state-of-the-art indoor areas.

Concept of the new outdoor area

 

“Around 2,500 people visit Aquarena each day, and we love welcoming the regular swimmers, local families, swim clubs, and community and school groups.

The centre is highly valued by the Manningham community and visitors alike,” Cr Lange said.

“This redevelopment will ensure the outdoor space continues to meet the diverse and evolving needs of the community for generations to come.”

We have appointed Co.Op Studios as the architect to design the new space, and bring the Aquarena Outdoor Masterplan vision to life. 

“The design process has been informed by the Aquarena Outdoor Masterplan, which involved extensive consultation with community users and industry experts, to guide the redevelopment of the outdoor spaces,” Cr Lange said.

“I want to thank everyone who shared their passion and interest in the future of the outdoor space. More than 800 people provided feedback to inform the development of the Masterplan. We’re excited to be delivering what the community asked for, and more”, she added.

Concept of the new water play area

Feedback from the community and stakeholders emphasised the need for more seating, shade, change rooms, a fun water play area, better spaces for schools and clubs, and a sustainable design to reduce environmental impact.

“An enhanced café will now serve both indoor and outdoor areas. The new outdoor change rooms will be only metres from the outdoor pool, and the outdoor pool will now have ramp access and a swim wall to swap between 50 metre and 25 metre lanes,” the Mayor said.

Concept of the new wet lounge (cafe)

Other enhancements include state-of-the-art landscaping and the electrification of outdoor pool equipment, marking another significant step toward achieving Manningham’s emissions targets. 

“Aquarena is currently our largest gas user. Making the switch from gas to energy efficient heat pumps, we can heat the outdoor area in an environmentally sustainable way,” the Mayor added.

The replacement of the centre's 50-metre outdoor pool will take place at the same time as the redevelopment works.

“Aquarena’s outdoor area has a rich history of over 50 years and has been a source of community pride for generations. For many in our community, this is their backyard – we’re embracing the theme of your backyard to create an inviting space where our community can get active, play, socialise, host events and relax,” Cr Lange said.

“We’re excited to start sharing the draft designs and offering on site consultation opportunities in the coming weeks. We’ll also be connecting with various user groups to keep them informed as the project progresses,” she added. 

The redevelopment works are planned to begin in late 2025, with project completion expected in late 2027.

Media release: Setting the stage for local live music

Article Content

Manningham Council has launched an exciting new program to boost the local live music scene.

Live and Local is designed to celebrate, develop and support our local musicians, bands and businesses.

This free program offers professional development workshops as well as performance and networking opportunities, providing valuable resources and support to musicians, venues and music lovers within the Manningham community.

Manningham Mayor, Cr Deirdre Diamante, said Council wanted to support and grow the grassroots live music scene.

“We have so many talented musicians, and music industry professionals in our local area. We want to support our local industry so our community can enjoy live music close to home,” Cr Diamante said.

“This in turn will boost small businesses, bringing more patrons to local venues and activity centres.” 

To launch the program, Council is seeking expressions of interest from musicians and local venues and businesses to get involved.

Musicians will have the chance to showcase their talents and get paid, while connecting with other local industry professionals. This opportunity will build their experience and contribute to the growth of the local live music scene.

Businesses don’t need to be a traditional live music venue to take part. All is required is a space for small-scale performances. Examples include retail spaces, cafes and galleries, as well as hotels, restaurants and bars.

Expressions of Interest to be part of the program close on Sunday 1 June at 11.59pm. 

Live and Local is presented by Manningham Council in partnership with the Live Music Office, One Music Australia and APRA AMCOS (the Australasian Performing Rights Association and Australasian Mechanical Copyright Owners Society). This project has been assisted by the Australian Government through Music Australia.

Melbourne Design Week comes to Manningham
… Melbourne Design Week comes to Manningham A new installation at the Manningham Art Gallery will provide …
Article Content

A new installation at the Manningham Art Gallery will provide plenty of food for thought as part of Melbourne Design Week – Australia’s premier design festival.

Beyond the Table: The Dinner Party Reimagined, is a reimagining of a traditional dinner party by local artists Isobel Goodman and Jade Piltz.

It’s one of more than 350 events, exhibitions, talks and installations on show across the state during Melbourne Design Week, which runs from 15-25 May.

Goodman, of Donvale, has used works from Manningham Council’s ‘Potters Cottage Collection” to inspire her signature papier mache and plaster sculptures that reference a dinner party table setting. The sculptures sit alongside the handmade pottery created by the Potters Cottage co-operative, founded in Warrandyte in 1958.  

Visitors can view the setting, or, during Melbourne Design Week, pick a flower from the setting to take home.

Surrounding the dining table presentation is a display of paintings by Piltz, of Warrandyte, that depict bright, layered and abstract domestic objects.

The dinner party will continue beyond Melbourne Design Week, with the installation on display until 28 June.

Melbourne Design Week is an initiative of the Victorian Government through Creative Victoria and is curated and delivered by the National Gallery of Victoria (NGV).

Visit designweek.melbourne to view the full program.

Public toilet installation - Cat Jump Park, Donvale
… installation - Cat Jump Park, Donvale We're installing new public toilets at Cat Jump Park, Donvale. On this page …
Article Content

We're installing new public toilets at Cat Jump Park, Donvale.

This project is part of the Public Toilet Plan 2021 and Cat Jump Park Masterplan.
 

Where is it?

These public toilets will be located on the southern side of Cat Jump Park, near the Bellevue Avenue and Leslie Street roundabout in Donvale.

This location is easy to access for use, maintenance, and service connections.

When will it happen?

We plan to begin installing the toilet facility in early to mid-2025, and expect it to take around three to four months to complete.
 

Why is it needed?

Accessible public toilets allow people to spend more time in public spaces, socialising, exercising, and engaging with the community. Without them, residents and visitors are limited in where they can go and how long they can stay. 

A safe, well-maintained, and environmentally friendly toilet will significantly improve the experience for Cat Jump Park visitors.
 

What will the toilets look like?

The new modular toilets will include:

  • An accessible cubicle
  • An ambulant cubicle 
  • Baby and child change facilities
  • A rainwater tank to utilise a natural water supply 
  • External and internal powered lighting 
  • Skylights for natural lighting 
  • Concrete paths to connect the toilets with surrounding facilities
     

How will the works affect me?

To minimise any potential noise or disruption to the community, our modular toilets are made offsite and will be delivered to the site.

During the installation, you may notice some construction noise and increased traffic in the area.

Beauty of nature on full display at Civic Centre
… Beauty of nature on full display at Civic Centre Stunning new botanical art displays at the Civic Centre provide …
Article Content

Stunning new botanical art displays at the Manningham Civic Centre provide inspiration for bringing the natural world into your own home or workplace.

The displays, on show until Spring, are by artist Kayla Moon, of floristry business xfloss, and are examples of biophilic design.

Biophilic design is about increasing our connection to the natural world within our built environment.

Kayla specialises in unusual large-scale sculptural pieces that combine different materials, colours and structural elements that are both beautiful and thought-provoking.

“Our work is unconventional because of the style of the materials that we use,” Kayla said.

“I love to create sculptures that are big floral monsters - more unusual, even grotesque – beautiful but a bit terrifying.”

Indeed, Kayla’s displays in the foyers of the Civic Centre and MC Square feature the dried and preserved weed Amaranthus, highlighting the beauty of what could considered a ‘monster’ outside its native environment. 

Kayla has combined the Amaranthus with the air plant Old Man’s Beard, Papyrus Sedge, and branches of Corokia to create beautiful sculptural displays.

“I’ve brought together different types of plants at different stages of their lifecycle – weeds, airplants, bushes and deciduous plants. I think it provides insights into natural materiality and the beauty of nature and how you can use flowers, twigs, rocks and other natural items as a medium.”

Biophilia refers to our innate connection with nature and was first coined by psychologist Eric Fromm in 1964. The word biophilia originates from the Greek words ‘bio’, meaning life, and ‘philia’, meaning ‘love of’, resulting in ‘in a love of life or living things’.

In our modern world, biophilic design supports connection to the natural world through practical design principals such as the use of natural shape and forms, environmental features, light and space. 

Bringing the natural world into our home and work environments has many health benefits, including relieving stress and improving our mental and physical wellbeing.

You, too, can bring biophilic design into your own home or workplace. Try some of these tips:

  • Live plants: One of the easiest ways to bring biophilic design into your home is through live plants. Spider plants, snake plants, rubber plants and peace lilies are all known for their air purifying abilities and look good too.
  • Texture and shape: Decorate your home with textures and shapes that replicate what you might find in nature. Materials such as wood, clay, cork or wool add a natural feel or you could find objects that mimic the patterns and forms of our natural world. 
  • Colour: In colour psychology, green is known to calm and rejuvenate, so think about bringing natural colours into your home that make you feel peaceful and bring you a sense of joy, seek inspiration from sunsets, waterways and green spaces.
  • Light: If you can, position desks or communal areas around windows to optimise natural light. Reflective surfaces such as stainless-steel bench tops and mirrors can help make a small space feel brighter and more expansive.
  • Airflow: Open windows when you can to ensure natural air flow or invest in an air purifier. 
  • Scent: Can be a powerful sensory experience. Use diffusers, candles, incense, or natural cleaning products in the home, think about natural scents such as lavender or citrus and made from natural or non-toxic ingredients. You might want to try growing herbs like rosemary, mint or thyme on your windowsill – they smell fantastic, and you can cook with them, too. 

Find out more about biophilic design from the Living Future Institute Australia.

Join us for our Inspired Living Series where you can learn about sustainable ideas from inspiring speakers throughout the year.

Media release: Design underway for Aquarena Outdoor redevelopment
… underway for Aquarena Outdoor redevelopment An exciting new water play area and improved café will be part of a major …
Article Content

An exciting new water play area and improved café will be part of the major redevelopment of the outdoor area at Aquarena Aquatic and Leisure Centre. 

The project's detailed design is now underway, following Council's endorsement of the Aquarena Outdoor Masterplan last August.

Our Mayor, Councillor Carli Lange, said the community is eagerly awaiting the redevelopment, which will bring Aquarena’s outdoor area up to the centre’s modern, state-of-the-art indoor areas.

“Around 2,500 people visit Aquarena each day, and we love welcoming the regular swimmers, local families, swim clubs, and community and school groups.

The centre is highly valued by the Manningham community and visitors alike,” Cr Lange said.

“This redevelopment will ensure the outdoor space continues to meet the diverse and evolving needs of the community for generations to come.”

We have appointed Co.Op Studios as the architect to design the new space, and bring the Aquarena Outdoor Masterplan vision to life. 

“The design process has been informed by the Aquarena Outdoor Masterplan, which involved extensive consultation with community users and industry experts, to guide the redevelopment of the outdoor spaces,” Cr Lange said.

“I want to thank everyone who shared their passion and interest in the future of the outdoor space. More than 800 people provided feedback to inform the development of the Masterplan. We’re excited to be delivering what the community asked for, and more”, she added.

Feedback from the community and stakeholders emphasised the need for more seating, shade, change rooms, a fun water play area, better spaces for schools and clubs, and a sustainable design to reduce environmental impact.

Concept of the new water play area

“An enhanced café will now serve both indoor and outdoor areas. The new outdoor change rooms will be only metres from the outdoor pool, and the outdoor pool will now have ramp access and a swim wall to swap between 50 metre and 25 metre lanes,” the Mayor said.

Other enhancements include state-of-the-art landscaping and the electrification of outdoor pool equipment, marking another significant step toward achieving Manningham’s emissions targets. 

“Aquarena is currently our largest gas user. Making the switch from gas to energy efficient heat pumps, we can heat the outdoor area in an environmentally sustainable way,” the Mayor added.

The replacement of the centre's 50-metre outdoor pool will take place at the same time as the redevelopment works.

UPDATED: 28 March 2025 new date for community workshop

A new Arts Action Plan is set to guide future arts, culture and local history services, programs and activities in Manningham.

To inform the plan, artists, creatives and community members are invited to provide feedback to Council on what’s important to them about arts, culture and local history, and the types of programs they would like to see in the municipality.

“Whether it’s visual arts and exhibitions, theatre, music and live performances, writing and literature, or photography and film - arts and culture touches everyone,” Cr Diamante said.

“Our local history dates back thousands of years from the traditional owners, the Wurrundjeri Woi-wurrung people, through the days of European settlement to our present multicultural community.

“Creative industries also form an important part of our local economy.”

Feedback can be provided by completing an online survey, or attending an online community workshop on Wednesday 8 April 2025, 6.00pm to 7.30pm.

Play kicks off at Powerful Owl Park

Article Content

There’s a new place to play in Bulleen! Manningham’s newest sporting and recreation facility, Powerful Owl Park, is now open for enthusiastic local soccer players and community.

It features:

  • three soccer fields (two natural turf and one synthetic pitch) 
  • a sports pavilion with tiered seating and player change rooms, umpire and first aid amenities 
  • 176 car park spaces
  • a nature play area; and, 
  • walking and cycling connections to the Yarra River. 

The new facility adds to our thriving network of local places where people of all ages, genders and skill levels can participate in soccer and other activities.

Participation in sports is important for a healthy, vibrant and connected community. For young people, it can provide the opportunity to develop valuable lifelong skills like resilience, teamwork, leadership and communication. Adults often find camaraderie and exercise through sport. 

We negotiated a commitment from State Government to deliver this facility in response to the North East Link Program’s impact to our community facilities at Bulleen Park.

The project was delivered by the Victorian Government’s Project Delivery Agency, Development Victoria, with construction contractor 2Construct. Our Recreation and Leisure team will manage usage of the new facilities. 

Powerful Owl Park is located at 27-59 Templestowe Road in Bulleen.

Media release: Funding win for Mullum Mullum Stadium battery
… to Mullum Mullum  Stadium by early 2026, thanks to a new neighbourhood battery. On this page Currawong Ward …
Article Content

Greater energy resilience and emergency backup power are coming to Mullum Mullum 
Stadium by early 2026, thanks to a new neighbourhood battery.

Manningham Council has secured $277,636 in State Government funding to install a
100kW/200kW behind the meter battery at Mullum Mullum Stadium. This will cover 90 per 
cent of the total project cost.

Connected to the stadium’s 450kW solar panels, the battery will store excess energy to help
power the facility.

Manningham Mayor, Councillor Deirdre Diamante welcomed the funding – highlighting its
positive impact for the community.

“This is an exciting step towards a more sustainable and energy-secure future for 
Manningham,” Cr Diamante said.

“The battery will help improve energy reliability, lower power costs and provide a crucial 
backup power source during emergencies,” she said.

As a Regional Emergency Relief Centre, this battery will also enable the facility to maintain 
critical services during emergencies, supporting the community with immediate support and 
resources when they need it most.

A neighbourhood battery is an electricity storage system that lets you generate, store and 
consume your own renewable energy.

In front of the meter neighbourhood batteries are connected directly to the local electricity 
network. Behind the meter batteries store and consume energy separately from the grid.

Neighbourhood batteries help:

  • provide better access to renewable energy
  • lower household power bills
  • ensure a more reliable electricity supply
  • contribute to Victoria’s clean energy transition.
