The playground was recently expanded and now includes three new play zones to suit the main needs of the park’s regular visitors: the inclusive play zone, the toddler and junior play zone and the adventure play zone.

The inclusive play zone champions accessibility. Easily accessed along a direct footpath at the northern end of the playground, wheelchair users can now have fun with the brand new in-ground spinner and nest swing.

Right in the centre of the playground is the new toddler and junior play zone, where parents of young parkgoers can rejoice as the equipment is positioned in a sunken and retained area, making it easier for them to watch their small children during playtime.

The adventure play zone caters to the needs of older children. This play zone features a 2.5m slide that complements the existing landform, as well as new climbing equipment to challenge the older children who gather and play at the park.

All play areas have been built on rubber soft fall to protect young adventurers from the woes of falling over and additional sails now shade the playground to keep parkgoers safe from the heat of the sun.

In addition to the new play zones, the upgraded playground features new paving, fencing and plants, new bike racks, a drinking fountain, as well as picnic tables and informal sandstone block seating to complement the natural environment.
