A publicly-owned town square in the heart of Kyneton

The co-op was formed in 2018 following a successful effort to preserve the historic Kyneton Primary School building. The Co-Op brings together local expertise fostering community efforts to protect local waterways, improve urban design, and last but not least, bring to fruition the vision to develop the now renovated old school property as a community-led publicly-owned town square in the heart of Kyneton. A living town square for Kyneton residents and visitors alike to enjoy.

The Town Square Story

The school site has the potential to become part of a broader resident driven vision for the development of a town square in the heart of Kyneton. Our mission is to facilitate community engagement and agency as central to the successful retention of the Old Kyneton Primary School site in public ownership.
