If you are living in the western part of Singapore, REJOICE because there is a NEWLY-OPENED playground at Jurong West!
Looks massive huh? The Jurong Spring Playfields officially opened last weekend and is the first Sport-in-Precinct (SIP) and ActiveHealth collaboration between SportSG, Jurong-Clementi Town Council and the Jurong Spring Division local community in Singapore.
Instead of just the usual kids' playground and fitness corner found at most HDB estates, the Jurong Spring Playfields incorporate playgrounds, fitness corners, a basketball court and open green spaces to encourage residents as well as families to go outdoors and keep fit together.
For starters, kids will not be disappointed as there are a total of THREE playgrounds to choose from!
The ever-popular Vertical Playground is here, in all its cheery yellow glory... and with a slight twist too. Kids will be able to climb up to the top of the structure and descend quickly via a tube slide.
Just beside it lies a giant rope structure which promises to offer lots of climbing fun for kids.
There is a trampoline too, for kids to reach that 'high' feeling... literally.
Younger kids need not feel left out, thanks to a smaller playground designed just for them.
And while the kids are kept busy at the playgrounds, parents can work up a sweat storm too at the fitness corner which consists of resistance bands and even weights!
I love how the Playfields cater to all ages, with its playgrounds, sheltered playing areas and multi-use courts.
I heard that come every Friday evening, High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) sessions are conducted there while there’s a Qigong group that brings seniors together every early morning.
Located jsut in front of Block 549 Jurong West St 42, it is definitely worth a visit if you are staying or around the vicinity. You even get to learn more about Singapore's history during World War II!
