WHAT WE HEARD FROM MEETING #1, #2, & #3 • “We want more height” in the slope. More opportunitjes for risk. • Maintain clear views across the playground and ample seatjng. Safety and security are a priority. • The playground will be fully accessible. Anyone of any ability can access all levels of the playground. • Embed play value in non-traditjonal ways throughout the playground. • Playground entrance as far from the corner of Walworth and South Street as possible. • Natural play opportunitjes, build a connectjon with plants . Maintenance for shrubs and groundcovers would be the responsibility of a ‘Friends of’ group. • Iconic tower desired – as risky and challenging as possible • Swings are priority (with a range of types). Basket swing desired. • Extra wide slide widely endorsed. • Spinners ofger the ability to learn gross motor skills. • All slides would be made out of a plastjc material. • Potentjal for sand play. • Benches, trash receptacles and bike racks desired.
