Clontarf’s new playground is open

A new all-ages inclusive playground at one of the harbour’s most iconic beaches opened on Friday, just in time for summer.The aquatic-themed playground at Clontarf Reserve provides endless fun for kids with a rope pendulum swing and spinning bowls, a fishing platform, a sea reed climbing net and slide, a seahorse toddler sand play activity area, and sandstone hermit crab retreat.Parents can enjoy spectacular harbour views while watching their little ones play under the new shade sails and beautiful mature trees, which have been protected and restored.The playground is an exciting part of the Clontarf Reserve Landscape Masterplan a - a multi-million-dollar upgrade of the area.Construction on the playground started in April this year after consultation with the community from November 2018 until July 2019, with funding from the NSW Government’s Everyone Can Play grant program.The sandstone seawall, accessible ramp, and tiered sitting bleachers were completed earlier this year and further upgrades are underway.
