The 2024 updgrade to the Woodward Park nature play area was part of a unique collaboration between Uniting Country SA, Port Pirie Community Kindergarten and Port Pirie Regional Council and was kindly funded through Wellbeing SA’s Healthy Towns Challenge.
The play area built by Climbing Tree includes plenty of space for children to climb, swing, run, slide, balance and create their own adventures in a re-energised area that is hoped to prove popular amongst local and visiting families.
A sensory garden, which is being developed by the Woodward Park Upgrade Committee, will be located under the large gum tree at the front of the playground.
