This place is fantastic, especially at Easter. They hold a massive sale over the Easter weekend and you can make some huge savings buying the plants at this time. It gets extremely busy and there are always hundreds of people waiting in line to pay for their purchases, but with the savings you make it is well worth the wait. Staff are always friendly and helpful and they have a great choice of plants, gifts and garden accessories/tools.

Mumbo Jumbo is so much cleaner and safer now they are under new management who have children of their own, with brand new high chairs for the babies and toddlers, a pool table, games machines, a revised baby (6 months +) toddler play area, and parents exercise area all of which makes it now a great place to bring the family there is something for everyone, even disco nights every second Friday for 10 - 14 year old's, from 7pm - 10pm. give them a call or drop by and see for your self.

This place is amazing. My husband visited it for work and then when we found 3 kittens a couple of weeks ago out in the middle of no where, this is the only place we wanted to take them. They take in unwanted pets and house them until a new home is found. They DO NOT put any animal down unless it is advised by a vet for medical or temperament reasons. When you walk in the shop there are 2 huge cat enclosures either side of the door with heaps of cats in them and there is plenty of room for them to move and toys to play with and places to sleep. On walking through the shop, where they also sell pet items, to the back room, there are more cat enclosures with both cats and kittens in them. Then there are more enclosures off to the side in 2 other rooms and out the back that house dogs of all sizes. All enclosures have clean bedding, food and water bowls and a donation box on each door. Clip boards on the doors give all details of the animal and a note above the donation boxes reads that your donation of just $2.00 will feed that animal for one day. They are doing a fantastic job to stop animals being needlessly put down. They need foster homes for some of the pets and I might just become a foster parent to a cat or a dog.

We have our kids birthday parties here every year rather than go to the usual places and be limited with time. There are several different themed party rooms that are used for 1 hour but then you can move into the general area and stay as long as you like. The play equipment is fully enclosed by netting, but is up the back of the play centre and not in clear view or all tables as there is a toddlers area in the middle of the centre. There are also 3 other play areas for babies, toddlers and juniors that are all fenced off, but they are not supervised properly by staff and the big kids often get in and take over. The party prices are a bit over the top but not way over the top as in others. The staff are friendly and polite. The place could do with a makeover though, and there is plenty of room to expand the main play area and improve it a little.

This place is a must if you are visiting the Docklands. It is great, we've taken the kids there several times. It's huge play area is fully enclosed in netting and the flooring is thick matting in case of falls. Kids of all ages can play in this massive area made up of 3 different levels and 3 large slides at the end. There are also 2 other play areas, one for toddlers with computer games and mini playgym which is enclosed with kid proof gating and then there is a jumping castle. Parents can sit and relax with a cuppa, the paper or a book and can see the play area clearly no matter where they sit. Cafe prices are a little high but not outrageous as some others. You can even leave the kids in the care of staff who will supervise them whilst you go shop in peace!!

This review is for Coles, Melton South VIC

Since changing from Bi Lo to Coles, they have gown downhill. They are stocking less and less brands. I am finding that they seem to only stock their own brand plus one other choice of brand, but in some cases, they only stock their own brand. Store is clean, staff are friendly, although some of the younger ones need to learn not to stand at the register chewing on gum like a cow.

This review is for NQR Grocery Clearance Store, Melton South VIC

Opened earlier this year giving us another choice to do grocery shopping. Good range of products, great prices, although it is a very small shop and therefore very crowded and sometimes looking messy. Most of the staff are friendly. If they redesigned the store to be more shopper friendly, it would be better for all. Being cramped and messy can be a safety hazard.

This review is for St Anthony's Primary School, Melton South VIC

Enrolled our child in prep last year because this school is a small school, only approx. 200 students. All classrooms, canteen, library and toilets are all under the one roof. And the toilets are in the middle of the building, dividing the junior classes from the senior classes, which means that no strangers can be hiding in them waiting for the children. Children are not allowed to go to toilets alone, they always go in pairs for extra safety. Once school begins, all gates and outer doors are locked so no one can get into the school unless they go in the front door past the office. Staff are friendly and the school issues a newsletter weekly so we are always informed to what is going on in the school. The best thing is we get a list of all school closure dates and special days at the start of the year, so there are no nasty surprises of days off at the last minute. We can actually plan to make sure someone is home on days when school is closed for whatever reason.

I go here as often as I can. The girls are fantastic, they do a great job and the owner has decorated the place beautifully. It is a very calming and relaxing atmosphere and you always come out feeling fantastic. All the staff are very friendly and make you feel welcome and comfortable the minute you open the door. Recently changing hands, it has improved even more (if that could be possible) by the giving of free product samples and gift certificates on your birthday.
