Karrinyup Community centre has one of the organs from the Metro Theatre in Perth, Western Australia. It is still used there sometimes for concerts.

My primary school(Carine Primary School) had a production(musical?) of Oliver in this building on 24th August 1981. One of the students acting in it was Lisa McCune(later in the Australian tv series Blue Heelers) in her acting debut(no idea what her role was though?)!!

The 4 glass and metal doors and 2 glass and metal walls between the Karrinyup Community Centre and Karrinyup Public library was demolished by a storm in(2011 or 2012?). Only the metal roof is still between the 2 buildings is still there. The 2 buildings were not damaged at all(I think?).
