Council has built a new, inclusive and engaging district-sized playspace with the concept design guided by the feedback received from round one and round two of community consultation.

The playspace enhances the features of the existing park creating an engaging hub for the community to meet, socialise and undertake recreational activities. The redeveloped community space provides a wide variety of opportunities for a range of ages, abilities and backgrounds for both the local community and the high volume of seasonal visitors to the area.

The playspace includes:

• a concrete outdoor ping pong table
• an outdoor chess table
• adult fitness equipment
• drink bottle refill station
• connecting wheelchair accessible pathways
• accessible BBQs
• new picnic shelter and tables
• an inclusive play unit
• accessible spinner, accessible see saw and unique rope swing.
• the existing basket swing will be made more accessible for all to use with rubber softfall. The play area will also boast a bespoke timber ‘peek a boo’ wall with informational highlights about the surrounding bushland and natural elements of Copacabana
• the existing toilets which previously serviced the tennis courts will now be opened to the public.

This project was jointly funded by Central Coast Council with grant funding from the NSW Government’s Everyone Can Play Program – a collaborative initiative to create guidelines to ensure new and upgraded playspaces are inclusive and accessible for everyone.
