Since the mid-1990s, Narre Warren South has become a booming suburb, taking over what was once was a rural area with few farms or rural areas remaining. In the last 10 years many subdivisions have been developed, including Berwick Springs estate, which was launched in 1999, and Cypress Hill estate/Hillsmeade which was launched around the same time. There are now other estates in the area, such as Golden Grove estate, Camden Greens Estate, Berwick Springs and Silverleaf.
Education
Narre Warren South is home to Narre Warren South P-12 College, a public school catering for students from Prep to Year 12. The college has one of the largest student enrolments in Victoria, with nearly 2000 students and more than 150 staff members. Narre Warren South is also serviced by Hillsmeade Primary School, a public primary school, and Trinity Catholic Primary School, a co-educational Catholic primary school as well as Strathaird Primary School that was established in 2005 and has been growing into a dedicated educational school ever since. As of November 2010, ICA Casey, a private school in Narre Warren South, was placed in voluntary administration. The campus of the former ICA Casey is now occupied by Waverley Christian College.
