As a growth area, Epping North and Wollert have few local sporting or recreational activities provided for young people. This project will install a high ropes course and adventurous playground equipment at Edgars Creek Secondary School. The high ropes course will be available to students from local schools and Scout groups supervised by trained instructors and will be secured when not in use. The low-height bouldering and cross-fit modules will be installed in a freely accessible part of the school grounds available for community use. The land will be levelled, rocks removed and equipment and mulch installed.
Epping North and Wollert need community spaces for youth and adults that encourage physical activity and social connection. Free access to equipment that challenges young people and encourages teamwork is limited in the northern suburbs. The high ropes course will be made available to schools in the northern metropolitan area, local Scouting and community groups and for community or corporate events. The bouldering and cross-fit modules can be used by anyone in the community. This space will enable people to get outdoors, be physically active and connect with other community members.

My boys would love this, will be great addition to the school, great idea
The kids would really love this and really benefit from it, as it gets them moving about and exercising and having fun doing it.
wonderful project that has opportunities for great play for many age groups....fitness trails have great success overseas and children need opportunities for managed risk, confidence building, fitness and diversity in play.
Something for the older kids in the community. Great idea.
Would be a great play equipment for teens and older youths .
great facility and idea for the local community to use.
Excellent project would be a great addition for the community and promotes kids to be more active
I also feel we need more equipment to cater to the older youths as younger equipment is well established there seems to be a gap for older youths
We really need some play equipment that is suitable for older children and teens. This would be so fun for the school students during breaks plus community to use out of school hours.
Yes! this would be a great addition to the school and the wider community
