Free School Holiday Event for the Lapwing Street Reserve Upgrade Opening
The City of Marion is hosting a free school holiday event to mark the opening of a new playground in one of their Hallett Cove reserves named after the Masked Lapwing bird.
The event will feature school holiday activities, a free bird-inspired decorated biscuit to the first 50 people who attend the opening and a coffee van serving hot beverages.
The Lapwing Street Reserve upgrade project was made possible through $159,655 in funding from the Australian Government through the Local Roads and Community Infrastructure Program. This program supports local councils to deliver priority local road and community infrastructure projects across Australia.
The reserve is named and themed after the native Masked Lapwing bird often found near the reserve. It includes a bird nest structure with a slide and seating circle along with sculptural ‘play’ eggs.
Features of the upgrade Lapwing Street Reserve include:
- A bird-themed ‘nest’ play structure with a slide
- Ground-level bird nest-themed seating circle with sculptural ‘play’ eggs
- Nest swing and monkey bars
- Log steppers
- Irrigation and grassed kickabout area with mini soccer goal
- Additional trees and planting and a new footpath
- New furniture including a picnic table and drinking fountain.
