Some of the projects we have undertaken.
- Updating the play area for the Scoresby Village Play Group.
- Construction of a “Fort / Cubby” for a local mum.
- The design and construction of a “Rat Maze” for a local girls school project.
The Men’s Shed visited Karoo Primary School to provide tools and supervision for the year 5 students while they drilled holes in wooden block for a project they are working on.
After the blocks were drilled they were assembled to make a small wooden robot.
Heritage Footpath – Relaying
Before the updating of underground services at the Stamford Park Homestead, the Rowville Men’s Shed removed and stored a brick heritage footpath.
When the updating of the services under the path was completed updated the bricks were relayed in their original location.
The Orana Community Centre at Wantirna created a “Community Open Space” and needed a suitable sign erected.
Some very creative ladies created a fantastic mosaic sign and the Rowville Men’s Shed constructed a suitable mounting and erected the sign.
The Chook Mahal at the Scoresby Primary School.
The school chooks had outgrown their old accommodation, as a result of the skills and hard work of the Men’s Shed the chooks have a larger coop.
The large size and a higher standard of accommodation lead the project being dubbed “The Chook Mahal”.
Just before Christmas each year we do the rounds of local businesses and community organisations to collect donated goods for families who are ‘doing it tough’.
This annual initiative (Knox Community Christmas Support) is coordinated by “Knox Infolink”. The Men’s Shed has been happy to help for many years.
