Project Overview

Possy Newland Reserve is getting an upgrade!

The reserve has been included in an upgrade as part of Wyndham’s Play Space Strategy and Open Space Strategy. The upgrade will include new district level playground equipment, upgraded sports court, upgraded bbq area and new landscaping.

Engagement took place in 2020 to help inform the Concept Plan for the Play Space.

What's happening now?

In addition to the Play Space upgrade, we're planning to add a new Youth Space to Possy Newland Reserve as part of a grant from the State Government’s Tiny Towns Fund.

The new Youth Space, planned to be installed near the basketball court, will transform a six-meter painted container into a dynamic youth space where the Youth Services team and other stakeholders will engage young people through sport and recreation activities.

The Youth Space will be used for community activities and include new furniture and equipment, often in conjunction with Wyndham's Street Surfer bus. New seating and plantings around the Youth Space will also be included.
