    To ensure correct installation works, the Rotary Park playground upgrade is now on hold until the new year. Due to the current high water table, it is unsafe to install the poles for the shade sails at this stage. The City will reassess condition in the new year and aim to resume works once the site is suitable for installation.

    Thank you for your understanding.

    The playground upgrade at Holgate Reserve has now been completed and the playground is reopen!
    The upgraded all-access equipment includes wheel spin, basket swing and an accessible multiplay unit. There is concrete wheelchair access to the new BBQ sites and the surrounding playspace with the use of soft-fall matting.


    We acknowledge the strong community interest in having toilet facilities at the Reserve, however, as we are still investigating options and costs for sewer connection requirements we do not currently have a budget allocation for the installation of toilets.


    Please note that the shade sails have been removed for now due to possible inclement weather and will be reinstalled prior to the warmer months. The tennis court resurfacing & upgrade is also on hold until the weather improves – we’ll keep you posted!
