Date15 December 2025 Two former childcare centres in the heart of Rockingham are set to be transformed into a new Community Hub and Rockingham Lotteries House, supported by more than $1.6 million in funding.
The project will revitalise two buildings at 10 Council Avenue into purpose-built spaces for local not-for-profit organisations and community services. Construction began early this month, with completion expected in late 2026.
The redevelopment includes:
• A new Rockingham Lotteries House, relocating from the City’s Administration Building to better serve tenants, and
• A Community Hub, available for lease by a not-for-profit organisation, with enhanced outdoor spaces.
The project is supported by close to $1.4 million in Federal Government funding through the Thriving Suburbs Program, and $279,377 from Lotterywest to enhance the Community Hub and outdoor areas.
The City reversed its original plan to sell the site after recognising the opportunity to create a lasting community asset. The total cost of the Rockingham Lotteries House and Community Hub Development is $4 million.
