LIVERPOOL PUBLIC SCHOOL

The Liverpool Public School Playground Upgrade reimagines the school’s outdoor environment as a diverse and engaging landscape that supports play, learning, sport and social interaction across all age groups.

Set amongst the school’s existing native trees, a naturally themed wild play zone encourages exploration, imaginative play and connection with nature. This is complemented by multi-purpose play equipment and a revitalised sports precinct incorporating a running track, soccer field, badminton, volleyball, T-ball and handball courts.

The site’s natural change in level was embraced as an opportunity to create a series of linear sandstone seating terraces, forming informal amphitheatres for outdoor learning, gathering and spectating. These level changes also provide a natural separation between active sports and playground areas, allowing multiple activities and age groups to comfortably use the landscape at the same time.

The result is a dynamic and inclusive school landscape that transforms the existing topography into an asset while creating greater opportunities for active play, outdoor learning and everyday interaction.
