Frankston South, Victoria

[4] From the 1980s, the current post office has been located in a small general store close to where the first Jamboree took place, on the intersection of Overport Road and Yuille Street.

[2] The site was chosen for its proximity to the town of Frankston, distance from Melbourne and its relatively unspoilt natural areas as well as access to the beach.

The original grandstand used for the jamboree remained a historic landmark at Frankston Park for 72 years, until it was destroyed by fire on 12 February 2008.

[6] Frankston South is home to the most expensive residential real estate in the City of Frankston, mainly due to its hilly terrain which allows for views of Port Phillip, tree-lined streets, properties built on the edge of Sweetwater Creek Nature Reserve (which is located in the centre of the suburb) and large subdivisions.

[11] Research from the Real Estate Institute of Victoria (REIV) also identified that properties in the catchment area of the school sell for 16.9% more than others in each suburb, compared with 4% more in Balwyn North.

Mornington Peninsula Pony Club provides dressage, show jumping and cross-country facilities for young equestrian enthusiasts.
