We are very excited to be partnering with Well Education to offer a FREE fun and engaging after-school life skills program for young men aged 12-14.


Great Mates - Young Men Empowered aims to encourage self-worth, resilience, confidence, and mateship in a collaborative and welcoming environment. It's all about participants connecting over fun and engaging activities, developing friendships, improving themselves and being a part of their community.


Everyone who attends will be welcomed into a safe and accepting space, a place to connect, have fun and make friends.


Great Mates will run over 8-week blocks on Thursdays with the first session running from the 11th of May - 29th of June. Due to funding from the NSW Government this program is FREE for the entire 8-week duration and all resources and refreshments will be provided.

What makes a great venue? According to our 5-star reviews, it's more than just quality facilities and a convenient location. It's the experience, the support, and the confidence that your event is in good hands. At The Place, we provide professional, flexible spaces for meetings, workshops, training sessions, community events and corporate functions. Our team works closely with organisers to ensure every event runs smoothly from start to finish. What makes us different is that every booking creates impact beyond the room itself. As a Social Enterprise, venue hire at The Place helps fund local community programs that reduce social isolation, build skills, strengthen connections and create opportunities for people across our region. So when you're planning your next meeting, workshop, training day or event, consider a venue that delivers value for you or your organisation while supporting meaningful outcomes in the community.
