Consultation has concluded.

The new Ella Reserve playground is open for play! Thanks to all the mums, dads, grandparents and kids who helped us create a great new playground for the neighborhood.

Randwick City Council is upgrading the playground in Ella Reserve, Lucas Avenue Malabar.

After consulting the community late last year, we have developed a concept design that has enlarged the play area and provides more play equipment, including opportunities for climbing.

The concept design includes:

• New climbing equipment
• Expanded play area with large mountain slide
• More inclusive play with a nest swing and wheelchair accessible spinner
• New shade structure, bubbler, tables and benches
• More plantings and grassed area for play inside the fence

Randwick City Council is planning to upgrade the playground in Ella Reserve, Lucas Avenue Malabar.

Funding has been allocated to install a new shade cloth, playground surface and most importantly, introduce some fun new pieces of play equipment! This quiet neighbourhood playground currently includes slides, a climbing structure, play panels and swings. There is plenty of park seating and natural shade surrounding the playground.

This is a great opportunity to create a more diverse playspace for local families, and we’d love to hear your ideas.
