About the project
We upgraded the outdoor environment and landscaping.
This included:
- a new cubby and natural play fort
- concrete paved pathways
- soft-fall surfacing
- an enhanced sandpit to make the space more accessible to children of all abilities.
There is now a yarning circle complete with fire pit – creating a culturally safe, inviting space for our community. We also installed vegetable garden beds and planted Indigenous vegetation and fruit trees.
We built a dry riverbed to tie the spaces together.
