Carers are a valued part of our community – their tireless and selfless commitment to their loved ones is an inspiration to us all and their contribution to our community cannot be understated.
City in the Community and the Melbourne City Football Club provide innovative ways for carers to be physically active, connect with our community and improve their well-being.
Remote Robotics return to the classroom!
Our team rejoined the classroom to continue our UBTECH Robotics classes, teaching young Melbournians computer coding skills using a mix of programable robots and their love of football to help them understand the importance of understanding and learning about technology as well as the importance of physical activity.
