Fantastic communication, fast and easy set up all done for us and simple instructions for us to follow, the bean bags were a great added touch to the whole outdoor movie experience. Would highly recommend and definitely use again!"
Manning takes its name from Lucy Manning, who with her husband donated land in the area, and the suburb was developed largely through a State Housing Commission project in the years following the Second World War.
The post-war housing scheme gave Manning its characteristic grid of modest brick-and-tile homes on regular blocks, a layout that still defines the suburb today.
The George Burnett precinct grew into the recreational heart of Manning, gathering a leisure centre, ovals, a skate park and playgrounds in one place.
Bordered by Curtin University and the Canning River, Manning has remained a settled, family-oriented pocket of the City of South Perth rather than a high-density centre.
For us it is a straightforward run up the freeway and across, with the modest travel quoted upfront and no weekend loadings.
