The newly designed playspace invites children of all ages to engage with their natural environment, fostering a sense of adventure and creativity. The project reflects a shared vision of creating a space that honours the local community’s values, enhancing the recreational experience for all who visit.
Carmen Court Reserve offers a peaceful escape where children and families can enjoy both nature and play in harmony. The playspace features natural wooden elements that integrate seamlessly into the surrounding landscape, allowing young adventurers to immerse themselves in the beauty of the outdoors. With its large open spaces, the park provides the perfect environment for children to play, while adults can unwind and enjoy the tranquil atmosphere.
The development of the park was deeply rooted in community consultation. Yarra Ranges Council engaged with local residents to gather their input on the park’s design, ensuring the final result reflected the community’s needs and aspirations. The vision was clear: a nature-focused playspace that encourages intergenerational play, where people of all ages can come together in a safe and welcoming environment.
At the heart of Carmen Court Reserve is the Budawang Unit, a striking teepee that blends beautifully into the natural surroundings. This Bushwood unit, along with a selection of bushwood and premium Moduplay equipment, invites children to engage in imaginative play and explore the space. With its emphasis on natural materials, the playspace is designed to complement the reserve’s picturesque setting, offering an ideal spot for children to learn, grow, and discover new skills.
Carmen Court Reserve Playspace is more than just a playground; it is a place for community engagement and well-being. Whether it’s a quiet walk through the reserve or an afternoon of fun-filled exploration, Carmen Court Reserve is a beloved community asset that offers something for everyone.
