We are so excited to announce that the Lyne Park Playground in Rose Bay is now open for play! Both Stage A and B of the playground upgrade project has now been completed.

Works commenced on the Lyne Park Playground in January 2024, with the upgrade transforming this precious open space to provide a range of new recreational uses for the community. The new playground provides inclusive, imaginative and flexible recreational experiences for all ages and abilities. The playground re-opened on Wednesday 14 August 2024.

The new accessible playground has some exciting new play equipment along with tables and benches that accommodate wheelchairs.

We are grateful for the strong interest and participation we received from the community during consultation and your feedback has helped shape these improvements.

  • Four bay swing with seven types of swings suitable for a variety of ages and abilities
  • Sensory area with xylophone, drums and mirror

  • Water-play zone

  • Nature play area for older children and inter-generational recreational experience

  • Bike track with bridge

  • Pirate ship

  • A flying boat - a playful nod to the site’s history as the former Rose Bay International Airport - for climbing, piloting and imaginative play.
