Blacktown City Council is thrilled to invite families to the opening of the "Wawai Ngurra, inclusive adventure playspace" at Nurragingy Reserve! This brand new, fully inclusive play space is a dream come true for children of all ages and abilities, and will be open to the public from Saturday 25 February 2023 at 10:45am for 11:00am.

This playspace includes adventurous elements that children of all ages and abilities can enjoy, and is designed and delivered by Blacktown City Council. It is the City’s first fully inclusive playspace, reflecting the council's commitment to providing increased opportunities to connect all members of the thriving communities across Blacktown City.

The Wawai Ngurra inclusive playspace is located in a natural space in the heart of the Nurragingy Reserve, surrounded by mature eucalyptus bushland. Visitors can access unique features that include a customised 85-metre-long elevated walkway, a Changing Places facility, all-access swings, musical items, a trampoline, a sand table, quiet places, and a play sculpture.

But the fun doesn't stop there! Council’s Leo Kelly Blacktown Arts centre has worked with Darug Artist Leanne Watson and consultants in developing ideas for signage and symbols used in the playspace. Plus, the council staff volunteered alongside Greater Sydney Landcare to enhance the surrounding space by planting more trees, native to the Nurragingy, Western Sydney Parklands Area.

The $1.9 million-dollar project has been fully delivered by Blacktown City Council, supported by grants from the Federal Government ‘Local Roads and Community Infrastructure’, NSW Government’s ‘Everyone Can Play’ and ‘Public Spaces Legacy Program’ and Council funding programs.

Come and join the fun at Nurragingy Reserve with your family, and enjoy an exciting, safe, and inclusive play space that removes the barriers that have in the past stopped everyone from playing together. All members of the community can come and play and relax in a brand new, inclusive, and safe play space that is sure to provide endless hours of fun!
