Playground upgrade
After consulting with our Little Bay community, we’re back with not one, but two fantastic concepts to upgrade the playground. Our two playground concepts are bursting with upgrades you’ll love:
- Bright, cushiony rubber soft fall
- A new taller shade cloth
- Fresh plantings and trees for extra shade
- Comfy new seats to sit and watch the action
- All-natural timber play equipment
- Inclusive fun with a nest swing, challenging balance trail and an in-ground trampoline
The one thing we can’t decide on is the main play tower, and that's where you come in! Which concept should we bring to life?
| OPTION 1: Includes 2.4m high tube slide, 1.2m high junior slide, wobbly bridge, climbing net and play panel. Click here to view Option 1 concept plan and artist impression. Note: the playground will be fenced. | |||

Randwick City Council is upgrading the playground in Woomera Reserve, Little Bay and building a new path connecting Esperance Close with the playground.
The playground upgrade is one of many we are undertaking over the coming years, in response to the community’s request to see play spaces in Randwick City upgraded to include more exciting and adventurous equipment suitable for a range of ages and abilities*.
Council aims to maintain a very high community satisfaction rating for our open spaces, coastal walkways and playgrounds.
The Woomera Reserve play equipment was last upgraded in 2005. The upgrade will include new play equipment, softfall and seating to encourage more families to visit and enjoy the park, which is tucked in between Bunnerong Road and residential properties.
We would love to hear from local families to help us understand what you’d like to see in the new playground to make it fun and engaging!
