Community Halls

Council provides 18 community centres and halls in the Hawkesbury. Some are directly managed by Council, with the remainder managed by volunteer local committees of management. The role of these Committees is to manage and promote Council's Community Centres and Halls.

Community centres vary in size and the facilities that they offer. Each centre aims to provide services and activities that appeal to a broad cross-section of the community.

These include:

  • Casual hire for functions, meetings, and conferences
  • Regular hire for Clubs and other Community Groups
  • Recreational activities for adults and children
  • Classes and seminars for adults and children in a range of topics

Listed below are council owned Community facilities & their details for hire.
