Correction (3 October 2026): an earlier version of this page listed places and details we could not stand behind. It has been rewritten from scratch: every place below was confirmed at two independent sources on 2 October 2026.
Free first, always. This page lists six places in and around Williams Landing where a council or the venue itself says something is free: courts, study rooms, wifi, a kids’ craft session. Two are in Williams Landing, two are in Point Cook and two are in Laverton, and each heading carries its own suburb.
Where a source says “free”, we say free and name the source. Where it only lists a service, we say that instead and leave the price question open. If you’re keen to go, check the linked council or centre page for the day, because programs and opening days change.
The quick picks
| If you’re after | Head to | Where |
|---|---|---|
| Free wifi and baby and kids’ programs | Williams Landing Library Lounge (Wyndham Libraries) | 1/101 Overton Rd, Williams Landing |
| Free tennis courts and a fenced dog park | Williams Landing Boulevard Reserve (incl. fenced dog off-leash park, free tennis courts, exercise equipment) | Williams Landing Boulevard, Williams Landing |
| A free study room and public wifi | Point Cook Library (Wyndham Libraries) | 1-21 Cheetham Street, Point Cook |
| A free kids’ craft session on Fridays | Stockland Point Cook (Point Cook Town Centre) | Corner of Main Street and Murnong Street, Point Cook |
| Free and low-cost workshops and exhibitions | Woods Street Arts Space | 44 Woods Street, Laverton |
| Public PCs and a printer | Laverton Community Hub | 95-105 Railway Avenue, Laverton |
Williams Landing Library Lounge (Wyndham Libraries) — 1/101 Overton Rd, Williams Landing VIC 3027
Wyndham’s page for the Lounge says “Free wifi on site” and lists Baby Time, where parents “sing, move, and bond with your baby”, and a LEGO Plus program. A Wyndham release carried by Mirage News adds that, because of its size and focus on library programs, study spaces and public computers are not available at this location. Wyndham’s separate Book Locker page describes a book locker inside the Williams Landing shopping centre, directly opposite Woolworths, where library members collect requested items and return them.
Plan it: check the council’s venue page for current opening days before you go, and treat the Lounge as a program and wifi stop rather than a study spot.
Williams Landing Boulevard Reserve (incl. fenced dog off-leash park, free tennis courts, exercise equipment) — Williams Landing Boulevard, Williams Landing VIC 3027
According to Wyndham’s tennis page, Courts 5 and 6 are the 2 free courts at this spot; they are booked through Book-a-Court, and the page mentions some time restrictions. The same reserve holds the fenced dog off-leash park. Wyndham’s dog dataset lists an Enclosed Dog Off Leash Park at “Williams Landing Reserve” with the details “All hours”, and WyndhamTV reported the park open, with a fenced area in three zones: a large lawn, an activity space with agility equipment, and a quiet area for smaller and older dogs. Wyndham’s off-leash rules say dogs must be on a leash entering and exiting and carry a current registration tag, and owners pick up after them. Wyndham’s outdoor exercise equipment page also lists Williams Landing Reserve. The council’s lists use “Williams Landing Reserve” and the tennis page uses “Williams Landing Boulevard Reserve” for what appears to be the same place.
Free first: the two free tennis courts, via Book-a-Court.
Point Cook Library (Wyndham Libraries) — 1-21 Cheetham Street, Point Cook VIC 3030
Wyndham’s page lists a Silent Study Room, says of its bookable Swan Room that “The free public wifi network is available in the room”, and lists a Rhyme Time program. The council also says the study rooms at Hoppers Crossing Library, Point Cook Library and Julia Gillard Library Tarneit “are free to book”. Its facilities list adds public access computers, printing, scanning and photocopying, a Wyndham Seed Library, and a bookable Swan Room that seats 6 for up to two hours, with membership required and no commercial use. The council’s page lists opening hours of Monday to Thursday 10am to 8pm, Friday 10am to 6pm, Saturday 10am to 4pm and Sunday 1pm to 5pm, with the library closed on public holidays.
Plan it: the library lists Saturday and Sunday opening hours, so it works for a weekend, but check the council’s page for public holiday closures before you go.
Stockland Point Cook (Point Cook Town Centre) — Corner of Main Street and Murnong Street, Point Cook VIC 3030
Stockland’s own page lists “Free weekly kids craft sessions every Friday from 10am-1pm at Point Social Makers Space” and invites visitors to “relax with a coffee while the kids explore our new playground”. It also describes Courtside, a weekly Youth Services program with no bookings required, which the page says has been relocated to the Jamieson Way Indoor Basketball Court with a free shuttle bus from the centre; read the current Stockland page for its ages, day and times. The centre’s page lists Friday trading from 9:00am to 9:00pm.
Free first: the Friday kids’ craft session; Stockland’s page names Point Social Makers Space in one line and “Near Prouds the Jewellers, Target Quadrant” in another, so check the page for where it is running that week.
Woods Street Arts Space — 44 Woods Street, Laverton VIC 3028
Hobsons Bay Council describes “a program of free and low-cost creative workshops, exhibitions, events and more”, so check each item for its price. Its Front Gallery is “An exhibition space for artists at all stages of their careers to show work as part of a 2026-27 program”. The council’s page says the space is open for events and workshops or by appointment.
Plan it: check the council’s What’s On calendar first, because we found no standing opening hours on its page; [email protected] is the contact the council lists.
Laverton Community Hub — 95-105 Railway Avenue, Laverton VIC 3028
The council’s hub page lists “Four public PCs and printer available to use”. The council describes the hub as a Council+ service site with a service centre desk. We found no price for the PCs or printer on the council page, so we have not called them free.
Plan it: use the council’s hub page to confirm what is on that day.
