Tatterson Park playground opens
A new environmentally-themed playground at Tatterson Park will give local families in Keysborough a great place to play and enjoy a picnic in a modern and safe environment.
Incorportating a ‘World of Insects’ theme, the playground is designed to integrate with the natural surroundings of Tatterson Park and give children the opportunity to learn more about our local environment.
Opening the playground, Mark Dreyfus, Federal Member for Isaacs, said how important it is for new communities in Keysborough to have this new recreation space.
“It has been fantastic to see the growth in this part of Keysborough in recent years, and with so many new members of our local community having young children, this modern and fun playground is a great recreation facility for families in the area."
“It is so important for our young children to be given the opportunity to play outside in a safe environment, and I’m glad that we have been able to secure Federal Government funding to make this project a reality.”
Funding for the $926,500 project was shared between the Federal Government, the City of Greater Dandenong and the Victorian Government.
“This playground is a great example of how the three levels of government – federal, state and the City of Greater Dandenong – are working closely together to deliver projects that are important to our local community,” Mark Dreyfus said.
