The new playground in Errington Community Park is now complete.
The Regional District of Nanaimo indicated families can enjoy features that include play structures, swings and a sand area.
Errington Elementary School donated art made by kindergarten students, which was revealed during a small celebration and now adorns the playground fence.
Errington Elementary and Heartwood Home Learning held a competition to name the new playground. Ideas from both schools were combined to come up with “Wild Rose Castle Playground.”
