History[edit]
In 1974, the Kingsbury Training Centre commenced as a residential institution catering for patients with an intellectual disability, located in the large Mont Park site in Bundoora (along with a number of other institutions). Kingsbury was closed by 1996. In October 1997, the former residents of both Janefield and Kingsbury Training Centres whose support needs were assessed as high, we sent to purpose-built facilities, Plenty Residential Services community residential houses.
