Ernie May is a locally classified playground undergoing renewal in 2025.

Broad community engagement was undertaken in April 2025, to identify the key features for a multiplay unit to enhance play at the site.

This information informed design specification and the draft design is now available for feedback.

Key elements identified focused on climbing and movement. Feedback was also received to retain and improve the basketball court and lack of functionality of the existing pump track.

The design includes unique monkey bar-style feature and other climbing elements, ground level activities for creative play and to increase the variety for younger children, dual slide with stair and adventure course access to cater to a wide range of ages within the space.

The basket court will be painted and pump track refurbished to improve usability.

Due to site constraints the addition of a swing set along with the multiplay unit was not possible.

As a local level park a pizza oven was outside the scope of the project.
