An exciting place for all children and their families to play will be established in the main visitor area of Brimbank Park in 2013.
The unique design of the playscape will be based on the natural and cultural heritage of the park. It will become a great meeting place for everyone, welcoming people of all ages and abilities.
Contact with nature is great for kids. Nature encourages children to use their imagination, and imaginary play helps children develop social, cognitive and creative skills. The playscape will also encourage children to be active and to understand and improve their physical abilities. All of these skills are essential building blocks for life.
The project is being developed in partnership with the People and Parks Foundation, Variety Victoria – the Children’s Charity and the Department of Sustainability and Environment’s Vision for Werribee Plains grants program. Funding secured to date has now reached $1 million.
A nationally recognised team comprising ACLA Consultants in partnership with Ric McConaghy Pty Ltd has been appointed to prepare the designs.
