Our play spaces just keep getting better and better!

It’s been another busy year of play space upgrades, with hundreds of children and their families enjoying so many new features – from engaging equipment and nature play opportunities, to picnic and BBQ facilities, shade, and landscaping - at several reserves across Frankston City.

The upgrades are part of Council’s Play Strategy 2021, which outlines priorities and a range of service levels for play spaces across the municipality, guiding the features and facilities to be included in each space.

Since January 2024, we’ve completed five play space upgrades: Kareela Reserve (Frankston), Whistlestop Reserve (Frankston), Austin Reserve (Seaford) and Willow Park (Frankston) and Ballam Park (Frankston). And at Lavender Hills (Carrum Downs) and Pratt Reserves (Frankston) we added new multi-sports courts for basketball, netball, and handball.

As the year draws to a close, we’re:

  • Putting the finishing touches on amenity improvements at Lindrum Reserve (Frankston) by adding seating, garden beds, nesting boxes, trees, new concrete paths, a new drinking fountain and creating a boulder barrier along Lindrum Road.
  • Upgrading the play spaces at East Seaford Reserve (Seaford) and Monique Reserve (Langwarrin) with new equipment, landscaping, seating, and nature play.
  • Preparing to kick off the play space and other park upgrades (including public toilets) at Sandfield Reserve (Carrum Downs) as part of the Sandfield Reserve precinct revitalisation
