The new tennis/netball court and playground at Chillingham is now open and ready to be enjoyed.
The park has been designed to be fun for all ages and abilities and includes accessible equipment for babies, toddlers, juniors, teens and even adults.
The park was designed to reflect the village's diverse community and integrates the local character of Chillingham and its farming history.
While the park is now open and ready to be enjoyed, line marking on the courts, the installation of the posts and nets and the painting of the concrete walls still need to be completed over the coming weeks.
What's new?
The rural themed park features:
an upgraded tennis court that can be used for tennis and netball
a half basketball court
new play equipment
built shade structure
scooter track
new basket swing
accessible picnic table and seating
landscaping
shade trees
fencing and an entrance gate
public art
Thank you to the Chillingham residents who completed the community survey which informed the final concept plan.
When we consulted the Chillingham community to develop the Open Space Strategy (2019–2029), you asked for an upgrade to the tennis courts, a playground and more youth activities.
Council received a $270,000 grant from the Australian Government’s Local Road and Community Infrastructure Program to upgrade the park. Council partnered with the local community to create a park where everyone is welcome.
