Background

Did you know that the childcare centre was the first in Melbourne?

Last September, the North Melbourne Children's Centre celebrated its 120th anniversary since foundation.

As you flip through the pages of the book, you can see how the centre has impacted generations of families.

This history book is also a tribute to everyone who has been part of the centre. Whether you remember the centre from the past or just want to learn about its history, this book shows what makes it special to our community.

The book is displayed at the foyer of the centre.
