Northern Midlands Council is thrilled to announce the completion of our newest playground, just in time for the school holidays! This vibrant, community-focused space is set to become a hub for play, relaxation, and connection for families across our region.

Mayor Mary Knowles OAM expressed her gratitude to the dedicated council staff and contractors who have worked tirelessly to bring this vision to life:

“Huge congratulations to the council staff and contractors who have worked so hard to deliver this incredible playground. It’s wonderful to see their efforts result in such a fantastic space for our community to come together, play, and enjoy.”

This project would not have been possible without the generous support of the Australian Government’s Local Roads and Community Infrastructure Fund and the State Government's Open Spaces Progam Round One. Mayor Knowles acknowledged their contribution:

“A special thank you to the funding contribution for making this transformation possible. Your support has truly enriched our neighbourhood and will bring joy to countless families for years to come.”

We look forward to seeing everyone enjoying this exciting new addition to the Northern Midlands community. It’s more than just a playground – it’s a place to create memories and foster community spirit.

This project aligns with the Northern Midlands Council’s Strategic Plan 2021-2027, reflecting our commitment to enhancing community assets and supporting the well-being of our residents.
