Manningham Council completed an upgrade of Sharon Reserve in Doncaster earlier this year and is now inviting the community to a planting community event on Tuesday 13 September to celebrate.

Completed as part of the 2015/16 Neighbourhood Park Development Program, the upgrade included installing a new playground, landscaping, new seating and walking paths within the reserve.

The celebration event will include planting activities and provide an opportunity for the local community to enjoy the new park and playground.

The new playground includes a slide, swings, spinner, climbing hut and opportunities for nature play.

The new walking paths, including a new circuit path around the reserve provide a link to Chapel Court and the neighbouring retirement village.
