THE state government will spend $1.3 million on a new playground at Sandfield Reserve in Carrum Downs if it wins the November election.
Premier Daniel Andrews visited the Carrum Downs park to make the announcement last week, 28 September. He said that “sport and recreation are the lifeblood of communities like those in Carrum.”
“Facilities such as this bring people together and add to the fabric of what makes a great community,” Andrews said.
Carrum MP Sonya Kilkenny said that the upgrade would “provide so many more opportunities for families to get together, close to home, so our kids can play, learn and develop social skills.”
“This is a wonderful project and another great example of all three levels of government working together to deliver great facilities for local families,” she said.
The federal government and Frankston Council have each committed $1.3 million to the project.
