The excitement was almost real when the City of Cape Town's Parks Department officially opened the Sakhela Park in New Cross Roads yesterday.
The facility was designed by City Parks to provide special play equipment for children with physical disabilities.
The City’s Councillor Gerhard Ras said that the park has special play equipment consisting of a unique two-seater swing, a two-seater see-saw and a four-seater roundabout.
“I was particularly moved when we were addressed by some representatives of the disabled community,” said Ras
“This is certainly not going to be our last initiative, we contemplating to open a similar facility in Mitchell’s Plain soon and I have certainly given the undertaking that we will explore further facilities of this nature within my department,” added Ras
