Community Pitch Story #18 – West Footscray Neighbourhood House

News

This year we pitched for funds to purchase sensory toys for Maribyrnong Toy Library  and we were fortunate enough to be able to buy an amazing array of goodies to add to our collection.

The Maribyrnong Toy Library operates at two location in the inner west – West Footscray & Maidstone – with over 2000 toys on offer.

Maribyrnong Toy Library is a much loved program of West Footscray Neighbourhood House. Toy libraries are good for the environment, save families money & save space. You can try out different toys, stay for a play and it’s a wonderful way to meet other parents.

There is a huge variety of toys, puzzles, games, dress-ups, ride-ons and large role-play toys for a yearly membership fee
