Thank you to everyone who provided feedback for the Albany Drive playspace upgrade.

Incorporating your feedback and ideas, the new playspace includes:

• a play unit with slides, climbing elements, and cubby wall for social play
• double swings, including a nest swing where young children can sit together
• a spinner
• balance steppers
• path markings for hopscotch and balance games
• more nature play areas to complement the existing bush kinder on site
• new seating
• an accessible concrete path.

Please note that images of play elements are indicative rather than a precise specification. Some proposed play elements may change subject to budget.

The playspace will be a 'pocket' classification, which means it is a very small playground usually used by children in the immediate vicinity and accessed by foot. Caters for residents within 400 metres and is guided by the following:

• Combination of 3 to 5 items of play equipment for toddlers and pre-schoolers
• Designs include accessible features and bench seating
• It should complement play provision in nearby playspaces
• Facilitate opportunities for social interaction
• Inclusive designs and wheelchair accessible path system
• Something that contributes to a unique local identity (Playspace Design Principles & Considerations)
