Grinstead Park Enoggera

Grinstead Park (also known as Shand Street Playground) boasts countless opportunities for exploration and play, including a dedicated nature play space and an expansive timber fort playground.

Working closely with the council and contractors, our play experts custom designed a high timber playground to maximise space and create a multi-level play space where children can challenge themselves and take physical risks. Standing balance swings, a large nest swing and a ‘shop’ are just some of the play elements featured, with the transparent timber structure broadening kids’ field of vision to the surrounding parkland. The fort also allows for ramp access, with several activities suited to all abilities.

A water pump with reservoir indicates the start of a dedicated nature trail, designed to encourage children to explore and investigate their natural surroundings. Based upon a palette of timber, rocks, leaves, bark and stones, the trail features a series of log steppers, a teepee, totem poles and bespoke animal carvings.

The playground was designed by Natura’s subsidiary brand, Play Works.
