Families across the City of Bayswater are enjoying renewed play spaces, with eight parks transformed as part of the City’s Play Space Strategy.

Mayor Filomena Piffaretti recently visited RA Cook Reserve in Bedford, the latest play space to receive an upgrade, where children are already making the most of the new equipment.

“These renewals make our play spaces safer, more accessible and more engaging for local families,” she said.

“It’s fantastic to see children enjoying these areas, and we remain committed to providing high quality play spaces that cater to a wide range of ages and abilities.

“Community feedback played a key role in shaping these improvements, and we encourage families to visit and enjoy them.”

Local residents helped guide the selection of play equipment, ensuring each space is practical, engaging and inclusive. Several play spaces also feature new shade sails for improved sun protection.

Over the past year, the City has invested $450,000 in renewing play spaces, demonstrating its commitment to enhancing public reserves and facilities, and creating inclusive and well-designed play spaces in line with its Play Space Strategy.
