This weatherboard building opposite St Helena Road is the former Greensborough Tea Rooms or Lobb’s Tea Rooms built in the 1920s. During World War 2 air raid wardens were trained here, it was also used by the peace corp. Later, in the 1960s, due to its proximity to the Sports oval, the building was used as change rooms for football players.
The building has been renovated a number of times. Each room at the centre is named after different women who played a significant role in the development of the centre. Now, local residents study a variety of subjects under the guidance of the Living and Learning Centre.
