The Westcoast Community Centre was established in 1993 with a seed grant for equipment from the combined councils of Cottesloe, Mosman Park, Peppermint Grove and Claremont. Incorporated as Wearne Community Centre in 1994, the name was changed to Westcoast Community Centre in 2001 to overcome confusion with Wearne Hostel. Wearne and Riversea Hostel residents are honorary members of the Centre. Our motto is "Caring and Sharing".

The objective of Westcoast Community Centre is to create a congenial meeting place for members of the community to increase their knowledge and skills through a variety of courses, talks and visits to places of interest.

Courses are presented by both volunteer and paid teachers.

Membership is $25 for 4 terms. This provides members with a newsletter by post each term, outlining available courses and costs. We are a non profit making Community Centre and costs are kept to a minimum, enabling courses to be available to the community at large. Unfortunately we are not able to offer creche facilities.

Please note that there is a $5.00 surcharge on classes open to non-members
