YMCA Penrith moves to new home
AFTER more than 20 years of supporting children and young people in the Penrith region, the Y Penrith has moved into a new, purpose designed facility at 62–72 Batt Street, Jamisontown.
This relocation marks an exciting new chapter for the Y (formerly YMCA) and the many families who have grown up with its gymnastics and recreation programs. Designed with the community at its heart, the new space offers enhanced amenities, state-of-the-art equipment, and even more opportunities for kids to thrive.
The Y (YMCA) has been providing gymnastics programs for the children and young people across the Penrith Community for over 20 years. This newly renovated community centre will provide even greater services to the Penrith Community and represents a multi-million-dollar investment from the Y NSW.
“There will be brand new gymnastics equipment, multi-purpose court, a range of sport and recreation activities, as well and other services like the Y’s StreetGym and Alternative Suspension programs. It will be a very special Community Hub for the Penrith Community,” said said Rob Kennaugh, Chief Executive Officer of the Y NSW.
The new centre solidifies the Y’s ongoing commitment to children and young people being positively impacted and living inspired lives. With state-of-the-art gymnastics facilities, along with a multi-purpose court and community rooms, the Y NSW is growing its services to meet the Greater Western Sydney’s community needs.
