The David Wood Playspace Project is currently under construction, an inclusive playspace delivered with funding provided by Council, NSW Governments Stronger Country Community Fund grant, the Retford Park Planning Agreement and funding from local community group The 4K.

Community consultation was undertaken in 2022 and 2023 which help informed the concept design. You can learn more about the process that was undertaken by reviewing the concept designs in the document library on this page.

The new upgraded playspace will include:

• Play equipment suitable for infants, children and young people
• Learn to ride pump track
• Park furniture
• Water play elements
• Flying fox
• Sensory walk

We'd like to thank those who have provided their feedback to date. We've listened to your feedback and have included this in our What We Heard reports in the document library. Please follow this page to stay updated about the progress of this project.

It is proposed to name the new playspace the Murraural 4K Playspace.

This proposal aligns with a Memorandum of Understanding between Council and The 4K, recommending the organisation's name be included in the playspace title to acknowledge their project contributions.

The proposed name also reflects community feedback and honours the local Aboriginal creation story of Gurangatch and Mirrigan, which centres on the Murraural waterhole at the confluence of the Wollondilly and Wingecarribee Rivers.

This story has directly shaped the playspace's design and features. Further details are available in the Gurangatch and Mirragan Jenolan Caves article and the engagement reports in the document library on this page.
