Kids movement festival

 

Experiment: Kids Movement Festival

A fun-filled event focused on kids’ interaction and active movement in nature. The program will include a range of activities like classic backyard and school games, slack-lining, natural movement, circus activities, live music and more.

Place plan theme: Health + Fitness

Date: Saturday 20 July, 11am-3pm

Location: Adjacent to Watson and Masson streets, Turner.

Observation: There are limited formal opportunities for active play and recreation in Haig Park. Limited user diversity contributes to lower usage, visitation and perception of safety in the park.

Hypothesis: Events focused on enriching children's experience of Haig Park can contribute to greater park visitation and improves perception.

Favourable outcome: A free one-day event attended by children across a range of ages and from diverse backgrounds with positive feedback. Increased awareness and use of larger infrastructure experiments.

We would love to get your feedback on this experiment. Have YourSay and help to improve Haig Park.
