Welcome to
The Haddon CLC
The Haddon CLC (Community Learning Centre) is a locally managed, not-for-profit community centre operating under the Neighbourhood Houses Victoria program. We aim to bring people together to connect, learn and contribute to our local community.
We offer a convenient, safe, welcoming and flexible environment to all of our community across Haddon, Smythesdale, Scarsdale, Smythes Creek, Ross Creek, other communities in the north of The Golden Plains Shire, the growth suburbs through the west of Ballarat, and the broader Central Highlands Region.
The Haddon CLC is a small community centre with a big heart. Reach out to us today or join in with one of our affordable, fun activities.
The Haddon CLC delivers a wide variety of courses, activities and personal interest programs across Health and Wellbeing, Gardening and Horticulture, Business and Technology, Cooking and Culture, and Art and Craft.
Learn something new, gain confidence with some skills, meet and connect with people, contribute to your community, or just have some fun and get a laugh or two – we are a great place to start.
