The Placa del Llaurador Park in Callosa d’en Sarria has introduced a new safe and enclosed play area.
The area costs €48,000 and was funded entirely with municipal funds as part of its Investment Plan. This covered the complete renovation of the playground, which is accessible to children under the age of 12.
New play area in Callosa d’en Sarria offers maximum safety
The playground elements, including swings, a walkway, and a merry-go-round, are made of wooden structures to ensure maximum safety. In addition, the floor of the play area is made of continuous double-reinforced rubber flooring to protect the younger ones from hurting themselves if they fall while playing.
The new play area is completely fenced off and is only open between the hours of 8am and 10pm. This is to minimise the likelihood of acts of vandalism, and to preserve the area for its users. Plans are also in place to introduce a trampoline later this year, which is sure to add to the park’s popularity.
Children ‘test’ out the new play area facilities
Wishing to test the park with its biggest critics, children from the Escola Infantil Municipal and CEIP Bernat de Sarria were invited to try it out. To make the event extra special, they were presented with three traditional XXL-size crocodile-shaped Easter Monas made by a local Callosa bakery.
Further entertainment was provided by members of the Colla El Pinyol, who performed traditional Valencian music.
