Warwick Keates and Amanda Balmer were recently interviewed on 5AA Radio by Amanda Blair, to talk about the success of the Hazelwood Park Playspace at Burnside.
Light discussion revealed the triumph of a collaborative approach to the playspace design, and the necessity for variation in play opportunities.
Amanda Balmer “The success was down to a collaborative effort with Play space designer Ric Mcconaghy and Burnside Council. We combined the natural play and the constructive play to appeal to all ages and all level of abilities. The ideal is for parents to allow children to make their own assessment as to what they’re capable of rather than prescribing”.
