About the project

We renovated the kindergarten yard to create an open-plan play space. It is a fun place for children to develop both mentally and physically. 

It is also more accessible for those with additional needs. Now, more children can play at the same time with safety and ease, including in the sandpit.

Funding

In the 2022–23 Building Blocks Inclusion Grants $181,802.64 was allocated to the project.
