Nillumbik is home to over 60 outdoor public playspaces, and Council is committed to enhancing the lives of children and their families by improving these spaces.
We understand the importance of quality outdoor playspaces, which provide opportunities for children to engage with the natural environment through cognitive, creative, physical and social types of play.
In addition to minor works occurring at various locations, several sites have been identified as priorities for 2025-26 renewal works based on age, condition audits and levels of use by the community. This includes Allison Crescent in Eltham North, Irene Court Reserve in Diamond Creek, James Cook Drive Reserve in Diamond Creek, and Alistair Knox Park in Eltham.
The much loved timber swings are being replaced with a new double junior swing set.
Works are due to be completed by the end of this financial year.
