Rubber Softfall & Surfacing

Even before stepping through the door at Play & Learn Upper Coomera, your imagination is racing as you are welcomed by the custom built ship bursting through the front fence.

Step inside and you will be greeted by a host of exciting play opportunities designed and constructed by the Ausplay Playscapes team.  The design creates several different worlds, all with different focus, within one larger, cohesive playscape.

With a focus on natural and imaginative play, the playscape includes a large sand play area, complete with mud kitchen, sand pit and cascading water over carved sandstone, as well as a digging pit with prehistoric bones to discover – leading into the centres own ‘Dino Land’.

The custom fort is a major centrepiece, with multiple slides, cubbies and entry points, as well as a tunnel that encompasses the new bike track.

Ausplay was also able to make the most of a difficult narrow space behind the building, designing a climbing wall, garden world and exciting tunnel to turn constraints into opportunities for the client.

Ausplay was commissioned by Everton Early Learning Centre to transform their existing yard into an exciting nature based playscape to capture the imaginations of the children under their care.

Ausplay Playscapes created and constructed an assortment of exciting play experiences within the small space, that promote a variety of skills and encourage social activity.

As you walk through the doors you will be welcomed by a colourful archway that also sprays water as part of the larger Waterplay Splash pad.  Water sprays, bubbles and pours out of elements in the splash pad, with endless fun to be had in a safe environment.

As you make your way through the playscape, you will find the custom timber play fort, complete with climbing decks, tunnel and double slide, surrounded by a bike track, as well as a sand pit, digging patch and mud kitchen.

A special feature of this centre is the barnyard that is home to chickens and ducks that the children assist in the care of to promote responsibility and engagement with the environment.

Ausplay also incorporated several quiet play elements for imaginative play and story telling, such as the yarning circle, tee pee and story telling areas.

Located in Smithfield, Cairns, Smithfield Village Early Learning Centre wanted to showcase the natural environment and provide unique learning experiences for their children.

Ausplay Playscapes was able to provide a full custom design that includes several different play experiences, from the Water World Splash Pad and Nature Play Areas to the Bike tracks and specially designed Barnyard.

The Barnyard is a major feature of the Centre, and includes housing for Chickens, ducks and a very special pig.  Children are encouraged to participate with the animals and be involved in their care – developing their sense of responsibility and cooperation.

To create even more excitement within the playscape, Ausplay incorporated a Windmill into the playscape that spins and pumps water in a fantastic display of energy and motion that has become a focal point of the area.

Ausplay Playscapes successfully designed and constructed age appropriate, outdoor learning environments for Eastside Early Learning Centre, just East of Brisbane.  The playscape aims to provide a variety of experiences that challenge children, develop motor skills and encourage imaginative play.

The focus on natural ‘open ended’ play through the use of Mud Kitchens, Sand Pits and Water Play provides sensory experiences and promotes creativity.

Ausplay Playscapes built elements such as the Climbing Fort, Grass hut, tepee, garden world, bridges and creekbed with pump all provide exciting stimulus for imaginative play and encourage social interaction.

Healthy active play is encouraged through the Water splash pad, balancing beams, bike tracks and swings that are set amongst lush, planted gardens.
