Consultation has concluded

The new design is based on the theme of the ‘Secret Garden’ and includes a large climbing / slide unit, triple swings including a basket swing. A fairy circle and doorway as well as gnome houses will build on the theme.

There will also be new seats, picnic table, concrete access paths through the reserve along with trees and plants. The site size is similar to the existing one. All the old equipment will be removed.

    We’re planning some improvements for Thea Reserve in Doncaster East and we want to hear from you.

    Through our Playspace Development program, this site has been identified for renewal due to its age, condition and use. We’re replacing and upgrading our play equipment to ensure it is safe, contemporary and meets the changing needs of the local community.

    We’re also considering new nature play features where ever possible to encourage exploration and creative play.

    Proposed improvements include:

    • New multi play ‘Tree House’ unit

    • New triple swings with basket swing

    • Fairy Garden ring of rocks and logs

    • Archway with climbing plants

    • New seats and picnic table

    • New drinking fountain with dog bowl

    • New and renewed concrete paths

    • New trees, plants & landscaping

    Construction works are scheduled to begin in March, weather permitting.
