MYzone

It runs every week during school terms and offers children the opportunity to engage in different games and activities each week. MYzone offers children a social space that is a supportive, supervised and safe where they can have fun, learn skills and meet new people. Light snacks are also provided. 

The MYzone program is led by Youth Workers who specialise in working with children in the Middle Years to make sure the space is an inclusive and friendly environment that supports childhood development.

Where does MYzone happen?

Southern Community Centre, 27 Rupert Drive, Mulgrave.

When does MYzone happen?

Thursdays from 4pm to 6pm (except on public holidays and school holidays).

Why did it come about?

Monash Youth Services have an ongoing commitment to the young people in the City of Monash. We acknowledge there is an opportunity within the Middle Years to engage children and support their social and emotional development. Our activities are developed with the input and interests of the children that attend the program

The MYzone program is an adaption of a similar program run by Monash Youth Services called Activate which is for young people aged 10-17 years.
