Information
The Shearwater Village Park at Harpley is a valuable green space for Harpley residents nestled between two connected waterway corridors and also strategically positioned at the threshold of one of the key entry areas to the Harpley Town Centre.
The park provides a range of different play opportunities for younger and older age groups with a combination of bespoke elements such as a kids cubby area, circular timber steppers and totems developed in collaboration with local Victorian Artists Mark Trinham and Glenn Romanis along with more traditional play elements. Also Incorporated with the playspace are shade and bbq facilities that are well linked to an active recreation area with a basketball court and well-appointed exercise zone.
A thoughtful planting design has created areas of visual interest, physical containment and habitat opportunities for local wild life set amongst the rolling mounds of the parkland.
