From “mothering” tuition to Melbourne’s first integrated community space, the Boyd Community Hub is home to a former college for girls’ tuition in the ‘domestic realm’. This heritage-listed building is now a vibrant community hub for the City of Melbourne and is regarded as one of the most architecturally significant state school buildings of the 19th century.
