Location Details
We’re excited to bring Melbourne Walk My Way to Good News Lutheran College, Tarneit, in the fast-growing western suburbs of Melbourne. This the perfect location to step out so that children can step up. You’ll enjoy the cultural community hub and the opportunity to walk alongside the picturesque Werribee river trail. Together we’ll extend ALWS’ legacy of love and care by changing the future for 75,000 vulnerable children impacted by conflict and poverty.
Church
You’re welcome to come at 9:30am and join us for worship at St Philips Lutheran Church, Tarneit. St Philips is located on-site at Good News Lutheran College, 580 Tarneit Rd, Tarneit.
Community Hub
Before and after your walk, you can enjoy the Community Hub… there will be something for the whole family.
Come early to collect your walking kit, enjoy a coffee and some lunch from the food stalls before you set out on your walk. You might choose to browse the stalls or sit back and enjoy the live cultural performances on the main stage. And then at the end of your walk you might like to treat yourself to a sweet reward from one of our food stalls as you connect with new and old friends.
