Unearth, Unknown Stories of Wonga Park
Wonga Park History Group warmly invites you to view their display of old photos and share your story of Wonga Park. Wonga Park is a former orcharding community on the edge of Melbourne but now a low-density residential suburb. Barista coffee will be available to purchase from a coffee van.
Wonga Park History Group have written books on the early history of Wonga Park.
In the future what the group would appreciate doing is documenting both the stories and history of more recent times. Your personal experience of living in Wonga Park, the photos you have taken of properties before they were developed for housing.
Do you know where your street got its name? Please come and share both stories and photos. It will be a fun time to catch up and share with others.
