Bundaberg West State School, Bundaberg QLD

The fantastic new play facilities at Bundaberg West State School was a project managed by WillPlay, from the initial design concept right through to the final installation. The school's vision was to create a comprehensive recreational hub with distinct zones catering to different age groups and play styles. The result is two amazing new areas, each with its own unique character and purpose, offering a balanced and engaging recreational space for the entire student body.

The play area is a vibrant hub designed for imaginative adventures and collaborative fun. Protected under a large shade structure, this space features a large bespoke climbing system alongside our popular double Boxie Climb unit, encouraging social interaction, problem-solving and creative play. WillPlay's thoughtfully designed Bespoke System serves as the centrepiece, featuring beautiful timber-look battens that give it a natural aesthetic. It offers a multi-level experience with challenging climbing nets, a central wormhole climber for a twisting ascent and a thrilling tube slide for a speedy return to the ground.

Alongside the main structure, the double Boxie Climb System provides endless physical and mental challenges. With climbing options on all sides, including nets, a knot climb, a ladder and plastic climbing walls, children can choose their own path. The unit is cleverly designed with a central wormhole climber on one side, a rope balance on the other and monkey bars separating the two towers, promoting continuous play and friendly competition.

A completely different challenge awaits in the Urban Warrior Area. Designed to test students' agility, strength and coordination, this dynamic obstacle course provides an exciting and active outlet for older children, getting hearts pumping and building physical confidence in a safe and fun environment. The course begins with the Quintuple Steps, a classic challenge requiring balance, coordination and focus as students leap from one angled platform to the next to develop lower-body strength and proprioceptive skills. Next, users face the Horizontal Cargo Net, a tough obstacle testing total body strength as students use their arms, legs and core to traverse across.

The final challenge on the course is the Monkey Crossing, a combination of classic monkey bars leading into an overhead net climber. This requires significant upper body strength and endurance, providing a thrilling and rewarding experience for students as they make their way across to the finish line. From the imaginative and social play of the main area to the physical tests of the Urban Warrior course, students now have a diverse range of activities to explore during their break times. WillPlay were proud to deliver this Bundaberg West State School project as a complete, start-to-finish solution, managing all site works, playground and shade installation and ensuring a seamless process for the school.
