Overview of whole playground @ The Green, Carseldine

The Green at Carseldine Village sits within the Carseldine Sport and Recreation Precinct and provides families with the opportunity for hours of outdoor play and movement. Pack a lunch and enjoy the shaded picnic areas, barbeques and amenities available.

The Green at Carseldine Village playground

If your Brisbane kids like to take risks and climb high, they will love the main feature of the playground – the climbing tower. It has a variety of climbing ropes and nets and is divided into three levels with rubber platforms. Levels two and three are fully enclosed, and once at the top, kids can descend via one of the two metal tunnel slides.

For younger kids, a shaded toddler fort is nearby where they can scale a mini climbing wall, spiral fire pole or steps. They can then clamber across the rope bridge and descend via one of the three slides or fire poles. Nestled underneath the fort are musical pipes, a spinning disc, digits and a hanging bar.

Also on offer are a set of swings (nest, baby and regular), a single spinning bowl, a large spinning cone for multiple partakers, and a Starsurfer rocking platform.

Next to the large tower is a bank of swings, then further down is a separate play area tailored towards the younger children. Toddlers will enjoy playing away from the bigger kids, practising their climbing skills on the mini rock wall, clambering across the rope bridge and sliding down one of the three slides. Nestled underneath the fort is also various musical and educational activities (just you wait until the kids find the musical pipes!).

Sports Recreation Precinct at the Green

If playing cricket, soccer, rugby, basketball, tennis or table tennis is something your kids enjoy, pack their gear and take advantage of one of the many sporting areas available. To avoid disappointment, book a sports area in advance on the Carseldine Village website or via the QR code available at The Green.

Outdoor exercise equipment is located in an open area surrounding the lawn suitable for stretching and yoga. A bike repair station and racks are also available if you want to ride to The Green.

Throughout The Green, filtered water stations are also accessible.

Imagination Factor

This playground allows kids of all ages to engage in open-ended imaginative play as they swing, spin or adventurously climb the tower or fort. Once atop the tower, the passing by trains can be spotted and it may even be the perfect perch to watch the sports on the fields below.

The sports area lets kids practice and refine their skills or have fun with a bat and/or ball.

Accessibility

The Green and Carseldine Sport and Recreation Precinct stretch over 4 hectares so there is plenty of space. The playground equipment and swings are set on rubber soft fall, and smooth footpaths link all areas together making it pram and wheelchair accessible. The amenities block includes an accessible toilet and a change room.

Plenty of shade sails, picnic shelters and seating surround the play area and are scattered around the sports areas. Some of the play equipment and slides are metal, so be sure to check if they are safe on hot days.

The area is unfenced, and the car park is next to the play equipment so supervision will be required. Also, consider that sporting events may be held on the weekends when planning your trip. This is not an all-abilities playground.

We think this is a great space that has a lot to offer. We can see The Green’s suitability for play dates, picnics, celebrations and community events.
