Welcome to Duntroon Community Centre

 

The Duntroon Community Centre (DCC) is a community group for both Defence and non-Defence families of the greater Canberra region. Our programs and events are open to all Defence members - Air Force, Army and Navy and their families while on a Canberra posting. We have been providing services to the greater Canberra community for over thirty years.

Our core programs include Playschool for children aged 3-5 years, Playgroup, Capital Craft craft group, Mums, Bubs and Bumps and Creche (occassional care). We also offer regular activities and events during the school terms and school holidays. These encourage social wellbeing and resilience for adults, children and families.

We also offer hire of equipment for our financial members. Room hire for birthday parties and celebrations, cake tin hire, trestle tables & chairs hire. And snow gear hire during the winter season.

Feel free to drop in and meet us to see what we can offer you and your family.
