The grand opening of the upgraded Keith Stephenson Park (KSP) Playspace will take place on Saturday 2 December 2023.
The finishing touches are being applied to the playspace at Keith Stephenson Park following major works with multiple additions and improvements. Perimeter fencing is underway and the slide will be installed soon. The upgraded playspace will feature new:
- shelters
- nature play area
- carousel
- swing
- trampoline
- Underground water supply for drinking fountains
- Shade sail posts
READ OUR REVIEW OF KSP
The Playspace will have a focus on inclusivity, with ‘something for everyone’ as one of the key principles behind the design. This includes integrating nature play experiences with more traditional constructed play equipment.
Analysis undertaken by Council and early engagement with local parents of children with disabilities has shown that there is currently a gap in the district wide open space network for these user groups. The upgrade also aims to bring the level of the playground in line with the parks district status and contemporary thinking around playgrounds.
