Jingeri Park is named after the Danggan Balun (Five Rivers) people, with “Jingeri” meaning “greeting all of you” in the Yugambeh language. This park serves as a gathering place for the community and was designed with sustainability in mind. It adds to the growing number of children’s playgrounds in the Redlands.
Jingeri Park playground
Lendlease, in collaboration with the traditional owners of the land, have created a park with a picnic area, shade shelters, and a centrepiece play structure, an 8.5m lighthouse and jetty, that reflects local landmarks.
The park pays homage to the bayside setting of the Shoreline community and the Redlands as a whole.
The Jingeri Park playground has been designed with climbing and sliding in mind with several options offered to scale the elevated playgrounds with 2 slides to come back down.
The centre structure resembles a lighthouse and contains two slides, one sitting at the top of the lighthouse while another smaller slide exits halfway down. We appreciate this multi-age engagement opportunity. It is always nice to be able to cater for two different ages of kids in one playground.
The highest and longest(tunnel) slide extends from the lighthouse and travels through a delightful ocean-designed brick wall.
Jingeri Park also showcases native flora, including three fig trees being relocated from the Shoreline site, chosen for their ties to First Nations culture and local plant species. The park will be located near the display village and information centre for the Shoreline community.
Imagination factor
It goes without saying, from the pictures, that this park could very well be home to a real lighthouse, while the surrounding blue flooring represents the ocean floor. Budding lighthouse keepers and explorers will especially enjoy this theme!
Accessibility
The paths are wide and most of the playground contains a sturdy and flat surface making it accessible to those in wheelchairs and with prams.
