June 2020: New playground now open

30 June 2020

Allambie Heights Oval was initially identified in 2015 as a possible location for a district playground; to help contribute a range of open space and recreational facilities in the family-friendly suburb. The oval is close to local school, shops, tennis courts and Scout Hall.

Our community had extensive input on the project, with concept plans for the playground out for consultation in September 2018 and then a second round between May and August 2019. Construction on the playground project was completed in May 2020.

The playground sits nestled amongst a natural bush setting, and boasts a hill slide, three swings, a see-saw and a climbing frame. The materials used include natural woods and muted colours to blend with the surrounds. Teens have also been catered for, with the installation of a multi-sport half-court for basketball and futsal.
