Papatoetoe Kids is a new ECE centre located in the growing Kohuora community.
Owner and director Glen Tuala first heard about Creo through an ECE industry exhibition where he was introduced to Creo’s design and build approach to creating play spaces.
After doing some research he found that Creo would be a great fit for the new play space project at the Papatoetoe Kids centre. The one-stop-shop service Creo offered made the process easy and kept communication clear which was very important to Glen and his team.
Along with the original equipment pieces, new play features were added. Fresh new swings were added back into the space along with a flying fox, both adding new elements to the playground. Due to the playground’s location by the waterfront, the playground features a subtle beach theme.
This story is told through the colour choices in the design, including light blues, nautical elements on the surface, and natural lush turf. The space also includes boat-like structures for both junior and older kids, reminiscent of an iconic boat that used to attract visitors nearby the playground.
This new play space is a celebration of both old and new elements, creating an exciting new space for Wellington locals.
