An upgraded playground at Bellflower Park in Sippy Downs is now ready for children of all ages to enjoy.

Sunshine Coast Council added a new play frame, complete with slide, fireman’s pole and climbing frames, and new shade sails for the fully fenced playground.

Division 6 Councillor Christian Dickson said the community had provided positive feedback about the upgrade.

“The new playground equipment is better suited for children of all ages and also creates a bright and visually appealing community area,” Cr Dickson said.

“The locals are very pleased with this upgrade and I would like to thank them for their patience and understanding during construction.

“This upgrade is just one of many improvements council has made to parks as part of our 2015-2016 Capital Works Program.

“Investing in parks and recreation facilities encourages more people to foster active lifestyles and helps council achieve its goal of becoming the most sustainable region.
