The community of Kensington is extremely grateful to the City of Melbourne for committing to the Kensington Adventure Playground (the Venny) and its programs that support not only children of the area but families as well. With the withdrawal of Save the Children as a tenderer, discussion with The Venny management team lead to a commitment from the latter to make some changes to improve compliance. Council, at the meeting on 31 May, awarded a contract for the operation and management of the Kensington Adventure Playground  to the Venny Inc. for one year, with a two year extension option subject to negotiation of final issues. THANKS to all Councillors for their support!
