"This year was one of the best the club has ever had!"
Lucy Rendina is the Secretary of the Westside Strikers Football Club, home to a large community of novice and experienced soccer players. We sat down to discuss how the club fared this year (2023) and what the goals are for 2024.
We've had another fun and exciting year at Modeina, with plenty of great family events and community initiatives, all while our community continues to grow.
Check out our 2023 wrap up to see a snippet of the wonderful year that we have had!
Summer is a great opportunity to spend more time outdoors with family and friends. But it’s also important to pay attention to your body and the surrounding elements to ensure you stay safe during the warmer months.
Here are our top tips to help keep you and your loved ones safe and happy during the summertime and ensure that you're prepared for any summer scenario – from water to heat health and fire.
Ways to create a safer, more cohesive, connected neighbourhood
You’ve bought your new home, in a brand new, modern and stylish estate. The streets are tidy and the public spaces are wonderful, but there’s something missing, that feeling of connectedness, a neighbourhood.
There has been a lot of research over the years, which indicates that knowing your neighbours, at least recognising them, will enhance your feelings of safety, wellbeing and mental health.
Searching for somewhere to host your next event? We know the perfect place - the Burnside Children's & Community Centre.
Located on the corner of Montmarte Boulevard and Lexington Drive, the centre is available seven days a week with three generously sized rooms for hire.
The Modeina Community Fund awarded 17 not-for-profit groups from within the Caroline Springs, Burnside and Burnside Heights areas with a $1,500 grant.
Successful recipients were invited to an awards evening at the local Burnside Community Centre, where they were recognised for their fantastic work for the wider community.

They help to keep shared spaces safe, clean and great to be in.
If you've spotted damage or something that needs fixing within your neighbourhood, you can alert local 'solvers' by using the Snap Send Solve app and website. Solvers include local councils, water authorities, power companies, government organisations, telcos, universities, and much more!
