Thank you for your ideas and feedback

During March and April 2023, we undertook an exciting project looking at the many community buildings, facilities and spaces at Lefevre Precinct and worked with our community to understand how we could improve community wellbeing and connection across this site.

We spoke to students from two local primary schools and one high school, collecting their project ideas to improve the precinct. We shared a range of ideas with community members at the community movie night event on 14 April and asked them to vote on their favourite ideas for us to investigate. We also collected some fantastic feedback from regular precinct user and local residents about what would enable them to use the precinct more frequently.

We’re currently busy pulling this feedback together and creating a list of community priorities for further investigation and future implementation.

Thank you very much to everyone who contributed to this process.

Activity Trail

Following engagement feedback we received from our community during March and April 2023, a Words Grow Minds activity trail has been established at Lefevre Precinct. The interactive signs along the new trail offer activities that promote reading, singing, talking, and playing, which are all essential for early brain development.

Each sign along the path introduces families to different ways of connecting through play and learning, with instructions available in both English and Kaurna, to provide an engaging mix of activities, language learning, and cultural enrichment.

City of PAE Libraries, with support from partners BAE Systems and Preventative Health SA, brought the project to life, with support from Kalaya Children’s Centre and KWK. The trail artwork, crafted by The Colour Manifesto, brings a vibrant and inviting aesthetic to the reserve, creating a space where families can interact with signs that are as visually stimulating as they are educational.
