The
Chatt
Centre is a community centre that was originally funded by
Networking the Nation. It has been in existence since 2002
and has formed relationships with YP Employment,
Anglicare,
Wakefield Health, the District Council of Yorke Peninsula, Rural
Training, local business's and individuals. It holds
community training sessions on many aspects of computer use from
the beginner to the advanced user. As well as offering
computing courses the Chatt Centre has now branched out to more
interesting workshops, covering things such as quilting, wooden
toy making, interior design, theatre workshops, tai chi and many
more. If there is something that you are interested in
please let us know and we will try and arrange for it to happen.
Being a
community centre we would love you to use our facility to host
your meetings or activities or for you to make some suggestions
of things you think we could be doing. Community centres
become vibrant centres when the community accesses and inputs
into the centre. Don't forget all our equipment is
available to the general public for hire, including the TV, VCR
and DVD player.
Don't forget
our 'facilities &
equipment for hire' and are available to the general public
,for example the TV, VCR and DVD player.
As
well as the Chatt Centre itself we have two fantastic satellite
projects on site. The first one is the
Maitland Markets where local art and craft produce and supplies are for
sale and the second is the Men's Shed, where you can come and do
some wood working or metal work.
Situated
behind the Chatt Centre is the Men's Shed. A community resource
for those with an interest in woodwork or metalwork, to come and
work on community or
personal projects.
Also in the
Heart of Maitland is the Maitland Markets open Thursday's
& Friday's,
featuring local Craft and Produce displayed in the old
shop fronts of Maitland from yesteryear. Definitely worth a look.

the centre, call (08) 8832 2174.
