At Stockland, we know it takes a lot more than bricks and mortar to create connected, happy communities. Since 1952, we’ve been building communities that bring people together. Spaces filled with energy, soul, and life. Where houses become homes and neighbours become family. All in pursuit of our purpose, a better way to live.
Our annual Liveability Survey is one of the ways we bring this purpose to life. By measuring what matters, we can better understand and design our communities around the things our residents love. From the quality of parks and playgrounds to how community design supports healthy minds and active lifestyles. We recognise, what matters to one person can be very different to the next. That’s why we survey across a diverse range, including belonging, connection, health and fitness, safety, environment, and sustainability.
Earlier this year, Sienna Wood residents were invited to complete our 2024 Liveability Survey. The results are in. We’ve listened. And here are some of the initiatives we’ve implemented.

Access to amenities and facilities
We’re enhancing access to local shops, amenities, and infrastructure with the future town centre at Sienna Wood. The future town centre will feature a supermarket and specialty shops, as well as a proposed childcare centre, providing convenient access to quality childcare within the community. Located along Weatherly Way, the future town centre will be easily reachable by foot for many residents, reducing the need to drive for everyday necessities.
Safety and security
Ensuring residents feel safe and secure at Sienna Wood is an important focus for us. Along with the security patrols of Shipwreck Park, we are working to develop a suite of educational resources to assist residents, covering safety tips, reporting procedures, and the neighbourhood watch structure. We are also in discussions with City of Armadale Police, Armadale Neighbourhood Watch, and the Hilbert Community Network about a proposed Neighbourhood Safety Information Session later in the year. This proposed event will aim to educate residents on safety measures and incident response while providing a Q&A platform for addressing community safety concerns. Keep an eye out for more information on these proposed initiatives.
Access to quality learning
The Wungong Primary School is set to open for the 2026 school year and will accommodate 540 students when fully enrolled. With construction now underway, we are eagerly monitoring the progress at the site located at the corner of Eleventh Road and Brighstone Avenue, Hilbert. This new public primary school will feature state-of-the-art facilities, providing local students with access to the best possible learning environments where they can thrive. We will continue to share updates as they happen. In the meantime, if you’re looking for local education options, the Hilbert Kids Early Learning Centre is conveniently located just across Eleventh Road, catering to children aged 5 and under.
