Garvins Road Playground
Sir,—lf Mr Warren takes a look he will see that a narrow path with sharp edges surrounds the slide, not a level surround, as he says. This path is where the accidents
happen. It should bo removed as it is not required. Surely one serious accident ia enough or does some poor child have to be maimed for life before Mr Warren and his councillors act?—Yours, etc.,
FATHER. May 19, 1967. [Tho chairman of the Paparua County Council (Cr. D. H. Warren) replies: “The sharp edges in the concrete surrounds to the play equipment could be dangerous to children and arrangements have been made for these edges to be smoothed immediately by the use of plant mix."]
