Moreton Bay City Council is spending $1.5 million on a new nature-themed playground at Caboolture Region Environmental Education Centre (CREEC) at Burpengary.
Construction is expected to start in late 2023, at the site along the Burpengary River.
The upgrade aim to help children get active while learning more about Moreton Bay’s natural surroundings.
Mayor Peter Flannery says the upgrades will create a significant offering for locals and visitors coming from far and wide.
“The new play space will attract visitors from across Moreton Bay and wider, improving our ever-growing tourism offering and bringing additional trade to local businesses,” Mayor Flannery says.
Situated on 18-hectares of greenspace, there is plenty of room for improvement, with the first stage including the installation of custom play equipment inspired by the natural environment.
