A huge THANK YOU to everyone who gave up their time, energy, and muscle power to help with our local clean-up. Your hard work truly made a difference, and the before and after photos say it all! 🙌

Due to additional works needing to be carried out before we can move to the next stage of our re-vamp, tomorrow’s clean- up has been postponed.

We’ll share an update soon with the new date and next steps 📅

And if you missed this one, keep an eye out, we’d love to have you join us next time 🦺🔨🎨

🚧 Playground Closed for Cleanup 🌿

To help keep our playground clean, safe, and ready for fun, we will be closing the playground from Friday through Monday for scheduled cleanup and maintenance.

This temporary closure is necessary to ensure the health and safety of all children and families who use the space. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation while we complete this important work.

We look forward to welcoming everyone back on Tuesday to enjoy a fresh and refreshed playground! 🌞

Thank you for your support!

A quick share goes a long way in supporting our playground cleanup! 😊

🌱 Community Playground Clean-Up 🌱

Our local playground could use a little love, and we’d love some helping hands!

No experience needed, just bring yourself (and kids are welcome with supervision). Gloves and gardening equipment appreciated if you have them.

Whether you can stay for a few hours or just pop by for 15 minutes, every helping hand makes a difference.

Let’s work together to keep this space safe and fun for our kids 💛

This page is managed by the newly formed community committee. Our goal is to protect, improve and redevelop the Collooney playground and surrounding amenities so they better serve everyone in the area.

We’ll use this page to:

This is a community-owned space, and its future depends on all of us.
