We sought residents' feedback on the existing play opportunities in each of the five suburbs and how these spaces could be improved. Click on the suburb names below to view the final designs.

• Richardson
• Waramanga
• Torrens
• Narrabundah
• Higgins

These reviews have been done in partnership with the local community in each suburb, facilitated by a landscape architect.

The final designs provided a better mix of play across each suburb, catering to more ages, abilities and play styles. This is a new way of planning for play, looking holistically at a suburb rather than at one playground at a time.

Community feedback on play experiences for each suburb were incorporated in the final designs.

Construction is complete for Richardson, Waramanga, Torrens, Higgins and Narrabundah!

There are great new amenities across the playgrounds. These include elements for swinging, climbing and exploring, with plenty of space for relaxing under shaded seating areas and teenage hang-out areas.

Other elements featured across the new play spaces include a climbing net, log steppers and basketball court at Torrens, dirt bike track, accessible spinner and picnic shelter at Higgins, nature play circuit, climbing slope and birds nest swing at Narrabundah, skate ledges and ramps, nest swing and spinner at Richardson.

Each of these play spaces provide creative and imaginative play experiences. They encourage children to climb, jump and explore while they are spending time outdoors!
