In recent years Parnall Constructions undertook the redevelopment of the municipal offices to create the Wangaratta Government Centre.

The new facility will be built using the former visitors information centre building at Batchelor’s Green, and provide services for long day care, kindergarten, family day care and maternal and child health, with the potential to add on specialist services such as early intervention, toy libraries and community playgroups.

It will also pave the way for the relocation of Wangaratta Childcare Centre from land in Cusack Street, which has been reclaimed by Goulburn Ovens Institute of TAFE for a new $8 million Technical Education Centre.
