Yallingup playground an outdoor wonderland

Children from the Carbunup River Playgroup have a new playground to enjoy.

Following a LotteryWest funding grant for $31,000 earlier this year, the Yallingup Steiner School was able to build some play equipment, including swings and a cubby house.

Playgroup leader Victoria Robertson said the playground gave the children something to do outside and helped their development.

The equipment will be geared to children between ages 0 to 8 years old, and will help the school in its vision to have a kindergarten at the site in the future.

The playground will be officially opened by South West MLC Barry House at an open day on June 23 from 10am to noon.

All are welcome to enjoy the new playground, face painting, a puppet show and morning tea.
