Facilities
The playground has been thoughtfully designed with families in mind:
- it is fully fenced, ensuring the safety of the kids while they play.
- additional shaded picnic tables and chairs have been added, along with a BBQ area, making it an ideal spot for family picnics and gatherings.
- Newly planted trees will provide shade in the near future, complementing the already mature trees surrounding the playground.
- In an effort to improve safety, the playground has been relocated to be further away from the road.
