Bill Colbourne Reserve, Doonside

Project Outline

CRS was granted the task to design and construct a new play area rich in play value, with a fruity colour scheme.

The central play fort is a large KliX FUSIONplay unit that can entertain up to 25 people. The play structure is equipped with 2 slides, pommels, multiple climbing walls, nets, monkey bars, sliding poles and imagination play spots. Close by, a cluster of KliX NATURALplay trails is carefully arranged for children to hop on, balance and climb – perfect for speed and agility development. Another major draw card is a double-bay swing set with a large nest seat, strap seat and toddler seat along with an accessible spinning carousel, spring rocker and inground trampoline. Nearby, a mini basketball court attracts teens to test out their crossover dribble, free throws and 3-pointers.

The play space covers a decent-sized area consisting of playground-certified mulch, wetpour rubber, concrete paths and a concrete basketball court with wear-resistant Plexipave Acrylotex (durable acrylic coating).

Bill Colbourne Reserve has plenty on offer, making sure to entertain and stimulate children from mixed age groups and abilities.
