The Pioneer Park play space was officially opened in 2006, Pioneer Park was the first all abilities playground initiated by the Queensland Government. The playground features a sensory garden, sand and water play areas, a play cottage, grassed kick-about area and a wide range of play equipment including a flying fox, climbing net, carousel, hammock, vibrating rock and a range of swings.  Objects and tables are at varying heights to meet the needs of all children including  toddlers and those who use wheelchairs. The play equipment has been designed to be light-weight and easily grasped and manipulated.  In the play cottage, children learn about ‘cause and effect’ by turning a wheel and setting cogs in motion, while learning from visual language tiles, ‘Spy’ and ‘I Hear’ panels  and touch tiles featuring A-to-Z Braille and sign language.   Facilities include accessible toilets, informal seating,  a picnic shelter and tables.  There are tactile ground indicators and visual strips to aid people with a vision impairment.
