Safety standards

This playground meets the standards set by the government.

It is not too high off the ground, there is soft material underneath, there are no sharp edges, there are sides to stop little children falling off.

In New Zealand, we follow the standards set in America. We will not have our own set of standards until 2003.

What do you think our standards should cover?

One of the main concerns is falling, and there are many regulations which try to prevent children being injured from falls.
