See the new design concept as construction gets underway

1 November 2021

Council is pleased to share the winning design for the new playground at Pioneer Memorial Park. Incorporating many of the community’s top preferences from recent feedback, the playground upgrade is based on a Bucket Tower Concept. It has a strong focus on:

  • Nature play using sandstone blocks, timber logs, found objects, space under and around the gumtrees and canopies
  • Imaginative play – with opportunities to create fairy gardens, to hunt for treasure and to explore the surrounding bushland
  • Climbing and monkey bars; high bucket towers and ropes for climbing, connected by monkey bars to create a loop and with multiple entry and exit points.
  • Inclusive play - double slide with accessible stairs

Work on the playground upgrade is now underway and Council anticipates it will be completed by late December 2021(weather permitting).
