Rockingham Foreshore Shared Path, City of Rockingham

Rockingham has a brand-new reason for families to get outdoors and play, the Churchill Playground has officially opened and it’s nothing short of SEAsational! This fresh addition to the area is designed to take little explorers on an adventure that flows from the forest to the sea, offering a mix of fun that keeps kids entertained and parents happy.

From the moment you step into the playground, it’s clear how much thought has gone into the design. Kids can rock, climb, slide, and spin to their hearts’ content, with equipment that sparks imagination and encourages plenty of active play. The forest-and-sea theme makes the whole space feel like an adventure waiting to happen, whether your child loves scaling nets, zooming down slides, or exploring tunnels.

There are plenty of clever details that make this playground extra special. Shipwreck-style play equipment, balancing logs, and nature-inspired features bring local stories and coastal vibes into the design, making it as interesting for older kids as it is for the little ones.

One of the highlights is how shady the space is without needing shade sails. The playground has been thoughtfully designed around the existing mature trees, offering families plenty of cool, shaded areas to relax while the kids play. The addition of inclusive play elements makes the space even more engaging and welcoming for children of all abilities.

Parents will also appreciate the practical touches. Toilets are conveniently close by, BBQs and picnic shelters are dotted throughout the park, and there are new drinking fountains in easy-to-reach spots. Parking is stress-free with lots of spaces nearby, and once playtime is over, you’re only steps away from cafes and restaurants along the Rockingham Foreshore.

Another bonus, there’s no sand in the play space itself, so no shoes filled with sand unless you head down to the beach. It’s all nature-based fun without the mess.

With wide lawns, shady trees, and a mix of adventurous and accessible play options, Churchill Playground has quickly become a must-visit for families. It’s the perfect spot to spend a morning, an afternoon, or even a whole day making memories.
