Exciting news! Clarinda Park Playground at 36-56 Clarinda Road, Essendon, is getting a makeover, and we want your input! We've created a concept plan that keeps all of the play elements you know and love (such as the swings, slide, ladder, trak ride and 4-way springer), while introducing some fresh new features designed to spark even more fun and adventure.

Here’s a sneak peek at what we’re proposing for the upgraded playground:

  • A high rope climb for thrilling challenges
  • Cluster climbers for imaginative play
  • Rock stepping stones to test your balance
  • A sand digger for creative digging fun
  • An adventure trail to explore and enjoy
  • An obstacle trail with rocks and timber logs for daring explorers
  • A shade sail to keep things cool and comfortable
  • Balance beams to practice agility
  • An additional picnic bench for relaxing and gathering

As this is a smaller park there is no capacity to install a public toilet or sporting facilities at the site.

We’d love to hear your thoughts on this proposed playground upgrade —help us bring this exciting vision to life and have your say by 22 December!
