Providence Ripley

An amazing water play with giant gushers that spurt towers of water high into the sky will be created as the centrepiece of Providence’s � rst stage of parklands. Combined with the adjoining adventure play area the new destination will be known as Providence “Splash’n’Play”.

Children of all ages will be able to cool o� as they race through a maze of aqua arches, “misty mountains” and gushers that spurt unexpectedly from the ground.

Ripley Valley’s � rst water play parkwill feature a dedicated toddler water

playground, an older children’s zone, and space for adults.

“We’ve designed Splash’n’Play with families in mind,” said Providence Project Director, Michael Khan.

“There’s the toddler area with whimsical water features, including ‘wiggly’ sprayers that little tots can control, as well as the bigger kids zone with 4 metre high water features that shoot water down to the ground.”

Around 80 per cent of the water play area is covered in shade structures, making it a sunsafe place to enjoy the summer.

“As well as shade structures, the park is dotted with trees, creating a cool oasis on warm summer days,” said Michael.

Splash’n’Play will become an iconic heart of Providence’s 200 hectares of parks and reserves which will weave themselves throughoutthe community.

Construction will start in the coming months, with Providence Splash’n’Play open in time for next summer.

The combination of a beautiful mountain backdrop, extraordinary commitment toparks and landscaping, planned schools, town centre and health hub have made it an address in high demand.Story continued page 2

Kimberley & Dean 200th land buyers!

Every day a new family buys at Providence

Buyers are rushing to snap up land at

Providence, Ripley Valley’s largest

community, at the rate of more than

one block a day, outstripping the most

optimistic forecast and prompting Amex

Corporation, who are the town founders,

to bring forward the release of Stage 6

by a full six months.

200th buyers Kimberley and Dean Morgan

currently live on the north side of Brisbane

and are planning their move to Providence

when construction on their dream home

is completed in late 2015.

“We looked at established houses around

the area before we heard of Providence.

The land is really good value, and we’ll get

to build exactly the house we want,” said

long term and start our family there…

it has everything we need,” she said.

Amex Corporation is an Australian

residential development company

owned and managed by the Shephard

family, that has been operating in

Queensland for 25 years, and has

delivered 14 communities across Australia.

landscaping so when our � rst residents

move in, green spaces will be well

established,” said Providence Project

Heart & Soul of the Valley

“When we � rst saw Providence we thought it was so lovely. The valleyis beautiful, the mountains really sold it to us and there are so many community facilities planned. The whole thing really suits our active lifestyle.”

New home buyers,Kimberley and Dean Morgan

Providence development underway

As we commence 2015, it is satisfying to brie� y re� ect on 2014 as a yearof extraordinary achievements at Providence. It was a year that we commenced site works and soft launched this new town from our temporary sales o� ce. Our vision to create a genuine people place that brings back authentic neighbourhood living was enthusiastically embraced by people far and wide. So much so that Providence soon became the second fastest selling new residential community in Queensland and the eighth fastest in Australia†. All this even before the � rst roads were sealed or the bridge opened.

Looking ahead, 2015 is shapingup as a year of big celebrations.The opening of the bridge across Bundamba Creek into Providence Parade will reveal all the hard work in creating the � rst neighbourhoods of Providence. We have already planted in excess of 10,000 new plants to beautify the area. This year thedisplay village will open, showcasing 24 stunning new home designs from our partner builders. The excitingnew Splash’n’Play and Adventure Playgrounds will open, as will thenew Providence Centre incorporating the Community Centre and Café,creating a vibrant new destinationfor the beautiful Ripley Valley set against a backdrop of mountains.

Most importantly, 2015 will see the � rst residents of Providence move into their new homes. Soon the address will be thriving through the commitment of Amex Corporationto create a community that enjoysthe � nest quality of life.

I look forward to meeting you soon at Providence at one of our community events planned for 2015.

Warm wishes,Michael Khan Providence Project Director

Ground has broken on the � rst display

homes at the Providence Display Village.

Award-winning Australian and Queensland

builders are constructing quality homes

designed for easy modern living.

The Display Village is scheduled to open in

mid 2015 and will showcase 24 designer

homes from Plantation Homes, Metricon,

Simonds, Stylemaster, Ausbuild, Planbuild

Homes, Bold Properties, Hotondo Homes

and Burbank.

The mini-neighbourhood will feature

distinctive homes to suit every budget

and lifestyle.

“There are designs that will suit growing

families and empty nesters,” said

Providence Development Manager,

Russell Dunster.

Designs include homes that meet the

latest design trends and suit a range

of households, lifestyles and budgets.

“The houses are single and double-storey

homes and all are designed for relaxed

alfresco living. All homes at Providence

will feature private open space that opens

to the house and brings the outdoors in;

that’s a cornerstone of our urban design

vision for Providence,” he said.

Competitive land pricing has meant

builders can o� er buyers a great range

of house and land packages. While Design

Guidelines are in place to protect the style

and character of the streetscape.

Providence Centre to be the community’s ownAs residents move into Providence and

form � tness groups, parents groups and

other community clubs, they will have

access to a newly-built centre, opening later

this year, where they can host regular

events, provide catering and hold meetings.

“The Providence Neighbourhood Centre will

help people develop the connections that

foster a friendly sociable neighbourhood,

and we believe it’s important to provide

that from the early days,” said Community

Development Manager, Stan Salagaras.

A dedicated community liaison o� cer will

be working at the Neighbourhood Centre,

beginning when the � rst residents are

moving in.

Highly � exible access hours and spaces

that can be customised to suit di� erent

groups’ needs will ensure that many of the

planned groups will be up and running,

and growing, as the community expands.

The Gallery space in the Centre will also

make a wonderful place to showcase local

artists and displays; from professional

artworks to the burgeoning talents of

kindergarten paintings, to exhibits showing

the heritage and history of the local area.

Ripley Valley’s visionary new town

Hundreds of local people and community leaders have helped to plan the facilities at Providence through a four-month community engagement program called Design Your Town.

Some great ideas were received, which were provided directly to our urban planners, landscape designers and architects to guide their shaping of Providence.

A very strong theme that has shone through is the desire for Providence to be a healthy community that encourages people to get out and about and enjoy the great outdoors.

As a result of your feedback, Providence plans to incorporate:

• An outdoor � tness circuit incorporating exercise stations with di� erent equipment suitable for adults and children

• Bikeways and walking paths linking the neighbourhoods, schools and town centre

• Discovery trails for nature walks and hiking, with viewing points and shady picnic spots along the way

• Sporting club facilities, including both outdoor and indoor areas

• Activities and spaces for teenagers where they can be independent but also safe

• Plenty of parks, trees and nature, which could be used in both the day and night with lighting.

Providence will grow and evolve over the coming years and there is always the opportunity for you to share your ideas. The planning team is always keen to listen to the voice of the community and encourages you to share your ideas.

Our community has their say

Fast broadband with NBNYour need for speed online will be satis� ed from day one at Providence when you can

connect directly to the National Broadband Network. Providence Project Director,

Michael Khan said the NBN was the obvious choice for Providence because it provided

the most � exibility for residents.

“People will be able to choose their own provider,” he said, “NBN have advised that

they have agreements with 65 retail service providers (RSP’s) in the Ripley Valley.

This will provide residents of Providence with an abundance of choice.”

“Residents will have direct and easy access to the NBN via their chosen retail provider.”

The NBN will be available in 2015, giving access to the new high-speed � bre-optic

network currently being rolled out only in selected areas like Providence around Australia.

For more information, please contact Di on 0418 400 140 or Dante on 0431 094 137.

Fitness circuits are planned

Stay connected at Providence


As Queensland students across the state begin a new school

year, planning for Providence’s � rst schools is well underway.

“The broad overall plan is two primary

schools and two high schools across the

whole site,” he added. “These will be

complemented by Early Learning Centres”.

For further details on educational opportunities contact Stan Salagaras on 0417 802 813 or [email protected]

Providence’s urban planners have expertly applied Walkable Neighbourhood principles to create a connected community where residents can live a more active life.

A relaxed address where, unlike the

car-dominated suburbs common in most

of Australia, residents can leave the car

at home to walk or ride.

Ultimately, every house in Providence

Central will be no more than a 10 minute

walk to the cafés and supermarket in the

future town centre, and a network of bike

paths means children will be able to safely

cycle to school.

Social and community facilities, including

schools, child care centres and health

services built right next to the town

centre add to the accessibility and feeling

of connection.

Education excellence a priority

An address made for walking

Although the � rst residents won’t move

in until later this year, Providence’s

community development team is

liaising with State and Local Government

agencies to plan the delivery of early

educational facilities.

While it’s still early days, the education

vision for Providence is clear. Learning

and education will be embedded

throughout Providence, providing

opportunities for everyone – from

young children, through to teens and

adults of all ages.

“Education is a fundamental driver in

creating good communities,” said

Providence Community Development

Manager, Stan Salagaras.

“Schools are engagement places where

people connect, come together and talk

to each other. The vision is to provide

a range of learning opportunities and

full education services,” he said.


Primary Schools will be on site

Ripley Valley’s visionary new town

Exceptional value is ahallmark of Providence. Particularly for early buyers who are bene� ting fromlow land prices, enablingthem to put more intotheir home.

The � rst releases sold out almost

immediately. Park front lots have been

particularly popular with families, and

low-maintenance blocks appeal to

couples who want a spacious house

with minimal outdoor maintenance.

With community demand passing the

most optimistic forecasts, new releases

have been brought forward to meet

people’s needs.

People who have been long-term renters

see the pricing of the house-land packages

at Providence are within their reach,

reigniting the dream of home ownership

in the strong South East Queensland

housing market. With land prices starting

at just $137,000 and ranging up to

$225,000 for the Platinum Collection large

premium park frontage release, Providence

o� ers some of the best value property

available today.

Just released for sale is a new selection of

lots in close proximity to parklands and a

short stroll to the meandering Bundamba

Creek. With demand expected to be strong,

it is envisaged that smart home buyers will

rush to this new release.
