Following the closure of the local school in 1988, concerned members of the community successfully negotiated with the South Australian Government and council to retain the building for development as a community centre. The City of West Torrens now owns and maintains the building and provides a grant to the independent volunteer Management Committee to be used towards employing a co-ordinator.
Re-opened in 1992, the centre offers an increasing variety of activities for the local community. It was originally named Reedbeds Community Centre to commemorate the character of the local environment during settlement when reedbeds stretched along the coast to Port Adelaide. A large mural inside the centre depicts this history. It now offers a comfortable and affordable venue for meetings, classes, exhibitions and any event which involves and benefits the local community.
