The City of Canning is partnering with community groups and organisations to take learning to where it's needed most using our brand new Canning on the Go Van. Thank you everybody for your feedback and interest.

The custom-fit van is equipped to create pop-up spaces for activities, programs and events. The City is partnering with groups to use the van to deliver innovative learning programs and activities in locations all over Canning.

  • PA system
  • Presentation screen
  • Gazebo
  • Tables and chairs
  • Awning

The van can also be used to transport equipment to indoor locations.
