January 26, 2026 | January 27, 2026 | January 28, 2026 | January 29, 2026(7 events) – Here is your chance to get active! So join us every Thursday morning at 8.00am at the Ellenbrook Central Community Space (at the bottom of the escalator) between Coles and K-mart. Walk with one of our Ellenbrook Mile hosts as we circle inside the shopping centre in air-conditioned comfort and meet new friends. Each lap is approximately one kilometre & our goal is to complete 4 laps. However, only you know your fitness level best so you can sit out a lap or part of a lap if you so wish. You are in charge! And that's not all. You may wish to join us for a friendly chat & cuppa afterwards at one of the cafes in the shopping centre. We hope to see you soon.

Do you have an idea of something you'd love to do in the company of others? (This could be a hobby, a coffee at your favourite cafe, a clean-up at your favourite beach... anything!) If you're nodding along to one or all of these, then you're in the right place!

You are welcome to keep your cameras turned off if you feel more comfortable. Start the year by growing something meaningful - for yourself and your community!

Online event – Enjoy the meandering peaceful bushland and flat paths that are in Henley Reserve park and bushland with friendly locals! Mostly shady and cool, there are two paths to choose: stay on the paved path near the basketball court and playground, ideal for people with walkers, prams, crutches and wheelchairs. Or, extend your walk with a venture into the bushland trail and enjoy the serenity of tree-lined paths. The bush trail is better suited to those who don't rely on wheels to move as in some places it is soft with sand, but mostly it is solid. The full walk will take less than an hour to do. Bring your hat, wear sunscreen and carry water. Come along for a gentle stroll, enjoy the natural beauty of the reserve and meet others who love to celebrate the beautiful bushland of Kwinana or need a little inspiration to get mobile on an easy walking track.
