  • Swing set with junior and toddler seats
  • Standalone birds nest swing set
  • Inclusive roundabout/spinning carousel which can accommodate wheelchairs and up to six users at a time
  • Balance beams and tunnels
  • Large play tower with inclined rope play and tunnel slide
  • Monkey bars

  • Nature play area including vertical and horizontal log steppers, balance log runners and two log teepee
  • a basketball half court
  • connected walking paths
  • a shelter, barbecue and picnic settings
