Reviews
The neighborhood is lucky to have this community center. An easy location to get to for everyone, kids, adults, seniors.
Has a run/walk track.

We used the Outdoor Skating Rink. Benches right beside the rink. Shovels are kept there to use to keep the ice clean. The other people using the rink were couteous. Nobody skating crazily. Kids learning to skate along with a few mixed ages playing "shinny". Good times.
Called in to inquire about membership packages to using the gym and apparently wasn’t using the verbiage they use to understand what I meant. The girl on the other line said “it’s the weight room, not gym”. Are you over 60 or under 60? It’s weight room. That’s what we call it. Didn’t have to get all upset over wording. Then asked about pricing and she said she didn’t know and to google it and check their website. Uhm, I wouldn’t call and inquire in if it was on your website now would I? I’m actually quite young, I didn’t know they called gym “weight room” either way, didn’t have to get all mad. I don’t know if she’s new or not, but definitely does not know how to deal with people. Clearly hates being there and hates people. She needs training.
The urinals in men locker room smell so bad, it is impossible to inhale next to them. I am surprised that i have to ask in a public forum, but please look into this ISSUE, it is literally breathtaking experience using them. I am there 3 times a week in the morning and the horrendous smell is always there.
Banbury Community Centre is situated in the beautifully quiet residential neighbourhood at Leslie Street and York Mills Road. The community centre is very popular for its banquet hall facilities. With traditional hardwood floors and a stage, it is perfect for your next family or corporate function. Other rooms are suitable for small meetings and quiet activities. Large windows in many of the programming spaces, offer scenic views of the wooded parkland that is Windfield Park.
Prosserman center is very nice, warming place to come. You can find the right class with professional instructors you want to go. Leisure swimming in warm water is always relaxin after ling working day and also sauna and steam room are great for heat lovers. I made many new friends and always go to the gym with a good mood. Very friendly staff, answers all the questions and provides all info.
One of the cleanest and well maintained community centers in Toronto. A lot of programs offered and staff are attentive and kind. The surrounding park is also amazing place to be plus a lot of basketball courts outside.
This centre is lovely and the programs are excellent quality, music class is amazing!! my son has learned to play piano more here than in private music schools.
Beautiful grounds. We come here for swim classes for our toddler with water babies. Their facilities look modern and clean. Also, staff is very friendly and helpful.
If you go down the ski slope you can find beautiful lake near Don river
I visited the newly opened Holocaust museum. It is relatively a small exhibition place concerning on interviews often survivors giving you a more 1st person view on the history.
Clean, well-preserved, bright, full of amenities, spacious, this place is amazing! Staff is welcoming
It is a beautiful community center with great amenities and a big parking lot.
Also accessible by public transport.

Community center is great, classes are great. Need more parking in the summer.. a couple of times we had to miss our class due to lack of parking
I don't have any other day to compare this park to, but four stars due to the lack of parking and the room was a bit hot.
Otherwise, the community centre itself is quite nice and clean. The room we had had immediate access to a playground in the back for the small kids at our event. Even though around the centre was busy, the centre itself was not.
The actual park is really nice as well, unfortunately for us there was a huge event happening and there was zero parking making it crazy crowded with cars and people.
Be mindful, and ensure to check online for any functions happening at the same time on the weekends. That way, you can plan your trip accordingly.

after walking in the park I take a shower inside the community center.Its good because after walking i feel ithcyness on my body.
A fantastic community space and super friendly staff! I loved exploring the grounds and enjoyed a delicious lunch!
Always very crowded on weekends. A/v is not regulated well, in some rooms it's cold and some it's hot in there. Washroom is dirty since too many people use it.
Excellent
Went early morning. It was nice clean and quiet.
Breath of fresh air.

I come here to watch their Jewish Comedy Festival shows. They are great. Can't wait to go see the next one. They also have a great gym and pool.
Nice place for jews and isreali community services 👌
Park area is shelter by tall trees. There's 2 small play area.
Great facility. Clean gym, good variety of machines but there could be some more instead of the treadmills, very nice pool and clean locker rooms. Easily accessible with multiple entrances. The membership is a bit expensive, but the facility is nice and there are lots of classes and programs available to add value.
This is the best community centre. It is clean and well maintained. Additionally, I really liked the instructor, Pauline. She takes her time to go over the exercise steps or modify it if I had difficulty.
New , modern Jewish Center. Now it's the best in Toronto. Big swimming pool with salt water - kids love lessons here. Very modern sports facilities and lots of room studios for different activities .Big parking lot and good security.
Lots of different free yoga lessons.

Spacious and very clean, good for kids indoor and outdoor play. Nice basketball courts indoors and quite a few outdoors as well. We also like that the outdoor playground facilities are spreadout instead of being too close together like some other kids playgrounds, so it's mostly not too crowded at any one.
Beautiful space. Well designed. Lots of parking.
Very well maintained, plenty of parking and plenty of meeting rooms
Very nice centre with park around
The building itself is decent, but this is such a waste of space. It's literally a tiny hut with like three rooms for a summer camp. There has to be a better way to use this valuable land.
Madonna and her team are fabulous. They genuinely care about the programming and children. Samantha (Sam) was amazing and my little quickly took to her energy. She told great on the spot stories, and kept my little engaged the entire 90mins. I love Banbury and hope the community will continue to support this hidden gem. Thank you ladies, keep up the great work.
It is a very nice centre. All the many meeting and conference rooms are very organized. The design of the building is extraordinary beautiful.
Great and cozy place right in the middle of a tight and warm community. The place seems of high quality, as the tennis court and playground are kept in good conditions.
Basically a part of the Prosserman so read my review on that.
We had our family reunion here. This place is amazing. Big lots of space. Pwede ka mag picnic mag barbeque and.if you have children they can play in the park or water play. There is lots to do...😊😊😊😊😊😊
My son has basketball sessions here. It's so accessible since the bus stop is just in front of it. Good waiting area and i saw different activities that can be done here. The playground outside the building is great too.
A beutiful communiy center for kinds and for elders too! Very clean and peaceful. They have a sensory garden pefect for energetic kids that will definitely make both your day!
This center is small but has so much potential. they have 2 play spaces with slides and swings and the community center has stuff always going on inside like cooking classes
Great building with friendly staff. The UJA is also an amazing organization.
Office building run by not for profit organization known as UJA (United Jewish Appeal of Greater Toronto) or also known as Sherman Campus. Houses different smaller tenants that assist mostly Jewish clients with Immigration, Child and Family Services, educational center for the Holocaust and many more. Also note that security here is tight, be prepared to be searched and have ID ready.
