Rocking mildly or wildly – new see saw for Landcox park will delight

We have an exciting new see saw to be added to the playground in East Brighton. For the safety of our workers and the community, we will need to close the playground and the toilets temporarily from 25 October to 29 October (weather permitting) while the Quartet See saw is installed. The toilets need to be closed as the installation involves turning off the water while excavating.

Please use this opportunity to explore some other newly upgraded playgrounds that are now open for play across Bayside.

Rocking mildly or wildly – the Quartet See saw encourages young children to play and work together. The design attracts children of all ages, and with four different seating options, encourages various body positions in rocking. The spring base makes it possible for different age ranges, including adults, to rock together. Those who don’t ride can sense the movements when seated on the side planks. There is room enough for a caregiver too. The seats at the end are big enough for older children as well as adults, and the thrill of rocking, individually or in pairs or groups, will make children play for longer.

Playing on the Quartet See saw trains children’s muscles and motor skills, e.g. balance and coordination. The Quartet See saw also supports the development of social-emotional skills such as cooperation, consideration of others, and turn-taking.

Thank you for your patience while we make this playground even more fun!
