Shepherds Park concept design and nature play area

What we are proposing

We want to upgrade the playground at Shepherds Park in Beach Haven and include a nature play area for ages 0-12.

You can download and view the Shepherds Park concept plan [27MB].

We have developed a concept design for the playground that looks to retain the existing:

• footpaths
• shade sails and poles

The swing equipment includes:

• an additional swing bay
• a variety of swing types.

We want to know which kind of swing you prefer.

Play equipment in the proposed concept design caters for:

• sliding
• balancing
• creative/roleplay
• climbing
• spinning
• rocking.

About the concept design

We developed the proposed playground and nature play concept designs following consultation with:

• community groups
• a local primary school
• Kaipātiki Local Board.
