This may appear to be a rather plain sign.But not many areas in Australia display the British term "Village Green".
This is a community area.
In the summer, there are circuses and rides.
On Australia Day, on 26th January each year,
this area comes alive with a community breakfast - free - + family entertainment.
It is also the end of the popular Australia Day early morning bike ride from Safety Beach to Rosebud.
And every Sunday, the Rosebud Lions Club hosts a market.
All this is right by the scenic shores of Port Phillip Bay.

We never use that term green here in Canada either but it is useful for describing those kind of areas such as I have seen in Britain.
We don't use that term in Canada, either.
I also think Rosebud sounds an odd name for place, but I guess you get used to it and it doesn't sound so strange to your ears anymore!
Great sign and a nice place for everybody! ^_^

The sign does appear a bit plain, but it sounds like there's lots of fun and excitement behind it. :)
Hi there - all it needs (assuming it does not have one already) is a midsummer cricket match in the long end of a summer day. Then it really will be an import from England!
Nice picture.

Sounds like a wonderful space for community to gather. :)
i wish our village has a "village green". the free breakfast and entertainment sound like fun.:p
I think having a village green in your town would be wonderful/ I like that is become a festive on Australia Day. Very Nice. genie
I think a village green is delightful.
I agree Gemma. Most suburbs here in Perth have a green space, a park..but how much more appealing it would be if they were called for instance 'Kingsley Green' I like it!!
