St Stephens School, Reservoir

The revitalization project undertaken by St Stephen’s School Reservoir, with the guidance of the Darebin City Council, has indeed led to a remarkable transformation of their school yard. The primary objective of creating a more natural and inviting play area was successfully accomplished through the incorporation of a natural-toned play structure with timber edging, complemented by mulch surfacing replacing rubber.

The integration of timber logs and timber steppers alongside traditional powder-coated pieces in muted tones has played a significant role in enhancing the overall aesthetic of the playground. This thoughtful combination of materials not only enhances the visual appeal but also creates a cohesive and welcoming environment that seamlessly blends with the surrounding landscape.

The final result is a true reflection of the school’s vision for a more natural-looking play space that harmonizes with its environment. Moreover, the careful consideration of design choices has ensured that the playground remains safe and engaging for students to enjoy.

In conclusion, the revitalization of St Stephen’s School’s playground stands as a testament to the positive impact that thoughtful design choices can have on creating a functional and aesthetically pleasing outdoor space for students to explore, play, and learn in.
