A Climbing Structure overlooks the play space, offering a place for children to test their physical strength but also an informal seating and gathering space for parents or teenagers to gather socially. Inside the play area, physical development opportunities are positioned throughout with opportunities to test speed and balance across the Jumping Discs and climb nets and ramps to the Platform House. A Totter Trail is ideal for toddlers to experiment with physical play with steps, inclined walls, bridges and a crawl tunnel to explore.
