    Or just don’t! Playground is perfect as is

    L asked 3 months ago

    Hi L, thanks for your comment. The City is required to renew playgrounds when they have reached their end of life to ensure safety for our community. 

  • Share Please please reconsider the use of anything resembling a rope bridge or stairs. Especially at Splendid Park. There are so many families with small toddlers that use this park and this would make it completely unusable for us. I does not look like safety has been a big consideration in the upgrades but it needs to be. on Facebook Share Please please reconsider the use of anything resembling a rope bridge or stairs.

    Hi Cass, thank you so much for your comment. Unfortunately, the consultation has now closed. However, we can confirm that the playground is designed as per Australian Standard and will undergo a playcheck by a certified consultant when constructed.

    Hi TT, thanks so much for your comment. Unfortunately, the scope of works only includes playground renewal (not park improvement) and does not expand outside of this area.

    • Don Simmons, Brookdale
    • John Dunn, Kelmscott
    • Rushton Park, Kelmscott (still in progress)

     

    Next year –

    • Eva & Bill, Camillo  (Park improvement)
    • Gwynne Space, Armadale (Park improvement)
    • Northerly Park Playground, Harrisdale
    • Matron Olive Playground, Mount Nasura
    • Morgan Park Playground, Seville Grove
    • Splendid Playground, Harrisdale
  • Share H there, My kids frequently use Northerly Park. Along our street, there are many school aged kids that could benefit from play equipment for older kids. There is a basketball hoop at the playground could use a new net that has been broken since we have lived in the area and never replaced. Some sporting facilities will also be nice for the area. I.e. volleyball net, soccer goals, table tennis or a scooter/skate park. The concretr area next to Northerly Oval seems like a wasted space that could be repurposed. The Northerly oval area has been flooded for some time and kids have not been able to utilise the area to kick a ball or play some cricket.

  • Share Hi there, We regularly use the current Matron Olive playground and find it has a great balance of play for toddlers and for younger kids. The new proposed playground has a lot of rope climbing which means the younger kids learning/able to do stairs/ladders won’t be able to use it as well - especially to get access to the slides. Is this something that can be reconsidered? on Facebook Share Hi there, We regularly use the current Matron Olive playground and find it has a great balance of play for toddlers and for younger kids.

    Hi Katie,

    Thank you for your feedback. The City has today updated the concept plan for Matron Olive with a unit that is more accessible for all ages.

    Many thanks

  • Share I have grandchildren age ranging 0-10. We love the current Morgan park playground. My grandchildren said they are abit worried about the lack of monkey bars/hanging bars and lack of flying fox on the new design. They said the current playground is great for ninja warrior races and said the design concept looks abit small? The toddler section looks good. Thank you for investing in our children. on Facebook Share I have grandchildren age ranging 0-10. We love the current Morgan park playground.

    Hi Susie,

    Thank you for your feedback. The new play unit will feature monkey bars however the City will do some further investigation to see if it can be made even more exciting! 

  • Share Hi Team I live opposite the park and hear children laughing and enjoying the playground everyday so it's great it's being renewed. However I do believe you should consider sand or the rubber surface as I know parents that avoid parks with wood chips and mulch because of the splinter prospect, falls and the ants and bugs it attracts. Ive driven past many woodchip parks that are very rarely used.

    Hi Rose,

    Thank you for your comments. The City is looking into an alternative playground surface instead of mulch for Splendid Park. The concept plan will be updated shortly.

  • Share We use Morgan park daily. We have a toddler and a primary aged child. Morgan park current play ground is perfect for older kids and toddlers as is. It’s spacious and big enough to accommodate the soccer family influx too in the Arvos. The all abilities swing would be a good addition, but I would recommend keeping the current set up and investing in shelter and maybe a fence to keep out the cabarita rd dog that’s always off leash. It seems the proposed playground is on a smaller scale compared to the existing playground. on Facebook Share We use Morgan park daily. We have a toddler and a primary aged child.

    Susan. F asked 3 months ago

    Hi Susan,

    Thank you for your feedback. The current play unit is unfortunately nearing the end of its lifespan so is required to be replaced.
    The project only allows for playground renewal and not amenities, however, the City will however keep your feedback in mind for any future works.
