BRISBANE’S BAYSIDE STILL A DEVELOPMENT HOT SPOT

After construction started in August, the dream, which was three years in the making for Wynnum couple Lachlan and Jana Walker, is now a reality.

“It’s an amazing to finally be opening,” Mr Walker said.

“It has been a crazy time with preparing to open earlier in the year before all this coronavirus stuff happened and now just waiting to see when we can open the doors.

“To be honest, the delays have probably helped us a lot because it’s given us time to get everything right but no we’re definitely ready as far as all the attractions and obstacles as well as the kitchen and everything like that.”

Mr and Mrs Walker came up with the idea to open the centre after attending other children’s birthday parties.

Mrs Walker said the aim of the venue was about more than just giving children the best facilities to play in.

“Within the centre, our indoor play attractions are designed to help children build confidence and strength while still remaining challenging and fun,” she said.

Throwing the doors open tonight, Mr Walker said the support from the community has been incredible.

“We have over 70 parties booked already,” he said.

“The parties of 20 will have the whole venue to themselves.
