Village Green

Village Green is a suburban shopping centre located on the corner of Kent Street and Manning Road in Karawara, Western Australia, about seven minutes from the Perth city centre and immediately next to Curtin University. It positions itself as a local, everyday convenience and community destination rather than a large regional mall, describing itself as "your Village Green" and "my place for every one." The centre is anchored by a Coles supermarket and a Spudshed store that trades 24 hours a day, seven days a week, supported by more than 45 specialty retailers. Beyond groceries, Village Green offers a High Street Dining Precinct with a range of food and beverage outlets, plus services such as a barbershop, dental care and medical facilities. Its events programme is family-oriented, with examples including a monthly sensory morning for young children and a kids' bubble tea workshop run with the beverage brand Chatime. The centre also publishes news and offers from its retailers through its website and an email newsletter. Accessibility is a core part of the centre's proposition. Village Green provides ample parking, including shaded parking on an Upper Deck Carpark entered from Manning Road, a taxi rank on the Walanna Drive side of the centre, and public transport connections via Transperth bus routes from Curtin Main, Wellington Street and Canning Bridge bus stations. It is also within close proximity to several train stations, including Canning Bridge, Welshpool, Oats Street and Queens Park. The centre is managed by Lease Equity, with a Centre Management office on the Coles carpark side of the site, next to Waterford Fish & Chips, open on weekdays. Coles Mall trading hours run from 8.00am to 9.00pm Monday to Friday, 8.00am to 5.00pm on Saturday and 11.00am to 5.00pm on Sunday, while the Spudshed Mall trades around the clock. Village Green is identified in public data as a shopping centre in Karawara, Western Australia.

Village Green is a shopping centre in Karawara, Western Australia, a suburb immediately adjacent to Curtin University and roughly seven minutes from the Perth city centre. Public data identifies it simply as a shopping centre in Karawara, Western Australia, and its own materials describe it as a local community centre on the corner of Kent Street and Manning Road. The centre's current identity is built around two large-format food anchors: a Coles supermarket and a Spudshed store that trades 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Together these anchors support a tenant mix of more than 45 specialty stores, covering food, services and everyday retail. A High Street Dining Precinct provides a concentrated food and beverage offer, while service tenants include a barbershop, dental care and medical facilities such as Park Medical Centre. Village Green is managed by Lease Equity, which operates the Centre Management office on the Coles carpark side of the centre, next to Waterford Fish & Chips. The office handles day-to-day centre operations and a lost property register, and is open on weekdays from 9.00am to 5.00pm. The centre maintains a public website that publishes centre information, retailer news, offers and an events calendar, and it runs an email newsletter inviting visitors to "join your village." Trading hours are split between the two malls. Coles Mall trades 8.00am to 9.00pm Monday to Friday, 8.00am to 5.00pm on Saturday and 11.00am to 5.00pm on Sunday, while Spudshed Mall trades 24/7. Dining outlets on High Street follow individual retailer times. The centre's events programme is aimed at families and the local community, with recurring activities such as a monthly sensory morning for children aged four and under and a children's bubble tea workshop delivered with Chatime. Access and parking are emphasised in the centre's communications. Village Green offers parking around the centre, including shaded parking on the Upper Deck Carpark accessible from the Manning Road entry, and a taxi rank on the Walanna Drive side of the centre behind Park Medical Centre. It is served by Transperth bus routes 30, 100 and 101 from Curtin Main Bus Station, route 30 from Wellington Street Bus Station, and routes 100 and 101 from Canning Bridge Bus Station, and it sits within close proximity to Canning Bridge, Welshpool, Oats Street and Queens Park train stations. The centre's positioning as a convenient, community-oriented destination next to a major university shapes both its tenant mix and its marketing.
