The Kwinana Adventure Park splash pad is set to get a major upgrade thanks to a $1 million Lotterywest grant secured by the City of Kwinana.
The city has also allocated $1m to match Lotterywest’s contribution.
The upgrade is intended to help improve the reliability, functionality and overall experience of the splash pad area.
Works are expected to include new water play elements, including a mega soaker and spiral tunnel, along with upgrades to the filtration system, plant and pump room, patio, toilets, shelter and surrounding amenities.
Premier and Kwinana MLA Roger Cook said the adventure park was an important community destination for Kwinana families.
“The adventure park is truly one of Kwinana’s favourite parks, cherished by so many families in my community,” he said.
“I’m excited about the upcoming upgrades that will make the park’s facilities and play areas even better, ensuring that both current and future generations can enjoy wonderful summers there for years to come.”
Kwinana mayor Peter Feasey said the project was a fantastic outcome for Kwinana families and visitors.
“We sincerely thank Premier Roger Cook for his support and Lotterywest for helping make this important community project possible,” Mr Feasey said.
“These upgrade will help improve the reliability of the splash pad, add new play features and enhance the surrounding facilities so children and families can enjoy the space for many years to come.
“It is also a great example of the city working with external partners to advocate for and deliver value for our community, while helping to keep pressure off rates.”
Mr Feasey said the project also aligned with the city’s early years strategy, which recognised the importance of welcoming, safe and child-friendly community spaces.
