Have your say on Euroa’s Bicentennial Park

20 Feb 2024

Euroa’s Bicentennial Park is getting an upgrade and Council is calling on the community to have their say on a preferred play structure.

The park upgrade also includes a bike track where children can safely learn to ride their bikes.

Strathbogie Shire Council Administrator Peter Stephenson said Council was responsible for providing quality infrastructure to enhance the environment in which we live, work and play.

“It’s part of the Council Plan 2021-25. Children are an important part of our future,” he said.

“We know that play is essential for the development of children and adults. Through play children learn the essential skills they will need in adulthood.

“Spaces that are well-designed to encourage play provide varied opportunities for young people to develop emotionally, cognitively and physically whilst socialising, exploring, taking risks and having fun.”

The park’s upgrade will ensure the area meets current regulations.

“We are calling on the community to help us select what kind of play structure they would like to see in the park so it is a place children can enjoy for many years to come,” Mr Stephenson said.

There are two structures to choose from – all you need to do is select your preferred option.
