Lipscombe Park

As part of Maroondah City Council's 2025/26 Capital Works Playspace Improvement Program, Activity Playgrounds designed and delivered a renewed community playground at Lipscombe Park in Croydon VIC.

The upgraded playspace introduces a diverse mix of inclusive and engaging play experiences designed to support physical activity, social interaction and developmental play across a wide age range. The result is a welcoming community destination that encourages movement, exploration and connection within a highly utilised local park setting.

The project combines elements from Activity Playgrounds' Fortitude and Resilience ranges, creating a balance between natural aesthetics and long-term durability. Two large play structures form the centrepiece of the playground, providing a variety of climbing, sliding and interactive play opportunities, while additional standalone elements encourage active participation across the site.

The layout was carefully designed to create a connected and accessible play environment, allowing multiple play experiences to operate simultaneously while maintaining clear sightlines for supervision. Upper-body challenges, swings and ground-level play elements create natural movement between zones and encourage children to engage with the entire playspace rather than a single destination point.

Designed, manufactured and installed in Victoria, the playground incorporates Australian-made steel in-ground posts for long-term structural integrity, combined with timber elements that introduce warmth and visual appeal. This combination provides a durable, low-maintenance solution while complementing the surrounding park environment.

A variety of swing options, including a multi-bay swing unit and nest swing, support inclusive play and accommodate different ages and abilities. Ground-level activities, spinning elements and interactive play features further expand opportunities for social interaction and imaginative play.
