Breaking Barriers at Raumanga Park: Whangārei's New Accessible Seesaw is Now Open!
Children with Disability NZ is thrilled to announce a major milestone in inclusive play—Whangārei's first wheelchair-accessible seesaw is officially open at Raumanga Park!
Why This Matters
This isn't just a seesaw—it's a revolution in play:
♿ True Inclusion: Designed for wheelchair users to enjoy alongside their peers
🌈 Multi-Ability Fun: Perfect for children of all ages and abilities to play together
💪 Physical & Social Benefits: Promotes core strength, coordination, and friendship-building
Our Journey to Inclusion
After our success bringing Northland's first wheelchair-accessible swing to Waipu Park, we knew Whangārei deserved the same opportunities. Thanks to generous community support, we've made this dream a reality.
