Health and wellbeing at heart of Peet communities
Peet’s Managing Director and CEO Brendan Gore believes the place you call ‘home’ is more than bricks and mortar – it’s about the community that surrounds you, that sense of identity, place and the sense of belonging.
“Our public spaces and variety of facilities encourage and promote an active, healthy lifestyle – and the opportunity to relax with friends and family in a community setting,” he explained.
In South Australia, residents at Lightsview can take advantage of a free bike hire service located at Urban Lights Café, open 7 days, with four bikes available including one with a child seat. Helmets and locks are also supplied for the duration of your ride.
The eight-hectare Aston Fields is now under construction at the Peet community in Craigieburn – with three first-class soccer fields, a cricket oval, kick-to-kick areas and a planned sports pavilion.
A number of communities around the country – from Googong in the east to Shorehaven at Alkimos in the west – have group fitness classes being run in parks by professional personal trainers and yoga instructors. And we must make mention of our dedicated mums with prams walking group in Googong as pictured on the left (Image credit: @qbnpalerang - Instagram).
Those looking for extreme fun need look no further than Flagstone in Queensland which has an awesome new pump track and off road mountain bike track or The Village at Wellard’s skate and adventure park which has become a destination for the wider community.
While the make-up and design of these spaces and places will vary – the concept of health and wellbeing is at the heart of creating great communities where people can build a future and enjoy the lifestyle of their choosing.
Here are some of our residents living active lifestyles in our communities...
