Non-Griffith bookings
We pride ourselves on our ability to cater to any type of function, whether your organising an annual conference and coordinating international delegates, to getting married!
The staff of the Ecocentre provide friendly and efficient services in an environmentally interesting venue. The equipment available for hire is of a good standard, and enhances programs presented. Staff are always available to assist in setting up rooms and ensuring that the equipment is ready for use. The hire of the EcoCentre premises for presenting ATEM Professional Development Programs definitely represents value for money.

Catering
The EcoCentre is happy to arrange catering for your function through a number of reputable and well-established caterers. In keeping with its promotion of the principles of sustainable living, our caterers source their food materials as locally as possible and, where it is possible, use organically grown produce. We also encourage caterers to make use of our crockery to avoid using disposable item that will ultimately end up in landfill.
To discuss catering options with our staff, please contact us. Alternativey, you can choose a set menu in one of our delegate packages.
