Choosing your surfacing
Every playground needs compliant softfall underneath it — wet-pour rubber, sand & mulch or synthetic turf.
Who themed suits
Themed playgrounds suit schools, childcare centres and parks that want play to double as storytelling, with a look that becomes the site's landmark. The range spans pirate ships such as Captains Cove and Crimson Corsair, forest designs such as Springbrook and Forest Gum, and vehicle, animal and aircraft themes for younger imaginations.
Ages, footprint and fall height
- Ages
- Sized for primary-aged children, roughly 5 to 12 years old.
- Footprint
- Footprint depends on how many activities are combined into one system; each product page gives its footprint and safety-zone dimensions so it can be checked against the site plan.
- Fall height
- Fall heights vary by model, with some designs reaching up to 3 m, the maximum free height of fall permitted under AS 4685.
What it costs
As a guide, a primary-school multi-activity system delivered and installed typically runs about $60,000 to $120,000, ex GST, with larger or destination-scale sites moving into the range where a council or destination playground starts from about $120,000, ex GST, with large feature playgrounds regularly exceeding $500,000. Every fixed-price quote covers the equipment, compliant softfall surfacing to AS 4422, site preparation, delivery, installation by our own crew and independent compliance certification at handover.
Surfacing to pair it with
Loose-fill mulch, synthetic turf or wet-pour rubber can all be specified to meet AS 4422 for the fall heights in this range; the right choice depends on budget, accessibility needs and how much upkeep the site can commit to.
