george gregan foundation

The George Gregan Foundation playground at Sydney Children’s Hospital in Randwick was officially opened in May 2010. Please visit the George Gregan Foundation projects web site to view further details here...

The all-access playground has been created as the most superb fusion of natural areas with beautiful trees and plants, kids' play equipment and a treasure trove of games and creatures to explore. It provides a truly relaxing oasis for all those kids and families needing an escape from the hospital wards. The major focus of the playground is an incredible diorama wall which features many hidden spaces and surprise elements for children to enjoy.
