2024 Ultimate Cricket Workshop with the Perth Scorchers
POSTED ON 25 Oct 2024
On Wednesday 23rd October, we had over 300 people attend and 90 kids participate in our Ultimate Cricket Workshop, with the Perth Scorchers at The Village At Wellard!
In addition to the workshop, there was a variety of activities including a silent disco, obstacle course and even a Scorchers photo booth for attendees to enjoy.
There was pizza, ice-cream and coffee on offer, plus the opportunity for participants to meet and get a signature from Perth Scorchers Players Chloe Ainsworth and Nick Hobson.
Thank you to everyone who came along and made it such a fun afternoon!
On Wednesday 24 July 2024, Wellard Village Primary School in partnership with Peet and The Village at Wellard Estate celebrated National Tree Planting Day. An initiative to teach school students about caring for the local environment. The school, which opened in 2023, was seeking to create a sensory garden just for the kindy and pre-primary children. The day saw 31 graduating Year 6 students plant around 400 seedlings to create the garden, delivering a lasting legacy of their time at Wellard Village Primary School. Damian and Hethen from Tranen introduced the activity by sharing the species that were being planted and demonstrated the best way to plant the seedlings for sustainable growth of the garden. Once planting was complete, the Year 6 students took the kindy kids on a tour of the garden and they were very excited to have a garden just for them. The year 6 students were encouraged to come and check on the garden in years to come as it continues to grow and flourish.
Throughout August and September we ran the Busking on the Strand activation series. It was a great success with a diverse range of entertainment including singer/songwriters, father/son muso’s, belly dancers, and Wellard’s own Singing Uke’s (pictured above). The busking occurred alongside the monthly “Gift and Take” market which was a big hit.
We look forward to bringing further activations to The Strand in The Village at Wellard!

POSTED ON 2 May 2023
On Thursday night 27 April, The Wellard Village People Sundowner took place at The Wellard Tavern. This sundowner celebrated the success and community involvement in the 7-Day Strand Makeover. Over 165 community members, volunteers and stakeholders were involved in the 7-Day Makeover, and 70 attendees to the Sundowner event, which was an amazing turnout.
The team’s journey of the makeover was re-told, and pictures were shared throughout the event. This has been able to give the community confidence and a sense of pride in The Strand.
After another successful event in The Village, it was great to see a sense of excitement about the future of Wellard and how the community can get involved. Another big thank you to all who attended and see you next time at the next community event!
Merry Christmas!
