Haddon Community Learning Centre Undertakes Much Needed Facelift

The Grenville Room at the Haddon Community Learning Centre has had a spruce up with damage to walls repaired and a new coat of paint undertaken just before school started first term.

A ‘Haymes’ paint consultant was invited to provide her expertise as to what colours would be best for the new look. And as a result a very different look was recommended by Belinda Goodhall (a long term community centre visitor with her children through the maternal health nurse) of the main Grenville Room as a yoga space and community space, understanding that the Centre had to maintain the current structure. Her recommendations included two soft green tones with a dark olive to contrast skirting and door framing trims.

It was fascinating to learn to make a space more inclusive for those with a disability you need to make a strong contrast colour to show door frames.

Because of the cost and difficulty with painting the roof, it remains the same colour. All walls were done in a colour called ‘green lily’ and frames of doors and floor skirts are now a dark grey, and a slightly deeper shade of the green lily was applied to the far wall to draw the eye to the back of the room and accentuate the angled roof.

The Centre would sincerely like to thank locally owned and Australianmade ‘Haymes Paint’ for offering a community discount for the wonderful job by painter Hayden Cartledge and colour consultant Belinda Goodall who choose soulful colours to soften, nurture and soothe in the landscape as well as including dark contrast trims which is inclusive for community rooms to assist with exits being easily recognisable for the visually impaired.
