Launch ‘inclusive’ playground works

THE new inclusive playground at Steele Park is the “crowning piece” of the $5 million Cooks River Parklands upgrade.

Students from Marrickville West Public School and the May Murray Day Care Centre joined Inner West Mayor Darcy Byrne and Federal Government representative Scott Farlow MLC (pictured) to launch the new playground last week.
Mayor Byrne said the upgraded playgrounds and paths along the Cooks River would “help our kids and our families to get out and get active” and “the inclusive playground is really important, because it means that more Inner West kids can have the benefit of play”.
This $2.53m park upgrade also included watering systems, revegetation, stormwater management work and new furniture.
