A new playground is coming to Pennydale Park! 🎉
We want your help to choose what goes in it.
You get play points to spend on different playground equipment.
- Big things cost more points
- Small things cost fewer points
- Use your points to pick your favourites!
The pictures are just examples. They show ideas to help you choose. We might not build exactly what you see, but your choices will help us know what Pennydale kids like best.
We want the playground to be fun for everyone. At least half of the equipment will be easy to use for kids of all abilities.
The most popular choices will help us design the final playground. We hope to build it next year.
Make your choices below and join in the fun before 28 September 2025.
What does the playground look like now? 😔

We’re going to make at least half of the playground equipment accessible and easy to use for kids of all abilities. This could mean the final design including equipment that may not receive highest general support but is supported by those with disability, or selecting accessible versions of popular equipment.
- Accessible / best for inclusion: Communication board, music play, accessible swing, group carousel, in‑ground trampoline, play tower (accessible).
- Partly accessible (with transfer/support or ground‑level alternatives): Spring rocker, nest/basket/hammock swings, standard slides with accessible approaches, sand excavator, water pumps, big/small towers with at‑grade play.
- Generally not accessible: monkey bars, giant climbing nets, net bridge, wobbly log bridge, log balance trail, hamster wheel, flying fox.
