Wheelers Hill Primary School is rapidly growing, we have had record numbers of enrolments of new children in 2017 and 2018. We currently have a playground located in the school grounds used by the younger children (Prep, Grade 1 and 2) during school hours. This is their own special area where they can make friends and play away from the older children. The playground is currently small and has rather old and tired equipment. It really needs a makeover! We are planning to landscape the area and extend the playground to cater for more children, and add some plants.
Playing outside is a vital part of childhood that allows children to develop many skills. The playground is regularly used after school, on weekends and during school holidays by the Out of School Hours Care service and wider Wheelers Hill community. The suburb's demographics are changing and more and more families with younger children are moving to the area and use the playground. It would be great to make the playground a bigger and more attractive resource for the wider community.

My kid always complains about the existing playground especially after rain, it gets muddy. Sporty and athletic kids, in fact all kids need this upgrade.

100% behind this project. The playground is used not only by school students but by the wider community during after hours and on weekends. It is not only a space for children to play and bond with each other but an example of a space where the adults connect with their neighbours and friends. The community would greatly appreciate support.
Fantastic comment - it is so true the play equipment is not only enjoyed by the school but by the wider community; who's kids play on it after school hours and weekends.

Our playground is small and tired. School is not only about learning but also about outside play so an upgraded playroom would definitely benefit all the students

WHPS is such a great school and an upgraded playground to cater for the number of children now enrolled would be fabulous. To also cater for the wider community as well and get children playing outdoors more means happier and healthier active children!
