Playground projects in full swing A NEW playground has opened in Frankston South. The new playset on Fleetwood Crescent cost $250,000 to build. Frankston councillor Brad Hill said “reconstruction of the play space and park improvements include paths, new tree and garden bed planting, park furniture and new fencing.” “The $250,000 project was identified by the Draft Playground Strategy as a priority due to the condition of the play structures and the fact that the playground at Fleetwood Reserve is the only playground in its catchment area,” he said. A new playground will also be opened at John Monash Reserve in Skye this month. The $300,000 upgrade features refurbishment of the existing timber play unit, new swings, spinner and nature play, shade sails, and a new picnic area with a barbecue.
