A popular Oakhurst playground has been given an upgrade, thanks to Blacktown City Council.
Ward 5 Councillor Brad Bunting said the new Hanna Reserve playground was designed to cater for both younger and older children.
“Playgrounds are a key part of any community, providing important spaces for children to learn and play,” Cr Bunting said.
“That is why we designed the play space to suit a range of ages: there is a junior area with a cubby house, swings and spring rockers, as well as a senior play area, including a challenging multi-play unit and carousel.
“Council has also built a new bike path that wraps around the playground and has planted extra trees to provide more shade.”
Cr Bunting said local residents were consulted on the design of the playground.
“I thank everyone who gave feedback and worked with Council to make the reserve the interactive, modern play space it is today,” he said.
Hanna Reserve is the latest park to benefit from Council’s playground improvement program, Cr Bunting said.
So far in 2017, Council has upgraded or built new playgrounds at: Bidwill Park in Bidwill; Greendale Terrace Reserve, Quakers Hill; Valencia Park, Toongabbie; Davison Reserve, Parklea; Twin Willows Reserve, Kings Langley; Endeavour Park, Kings Langley, and at Piddington Street, The Ponds.
