Comprehensive Level 3 Playground Inspections and Commissioning Inspection

Xyst carried out Level 3 Comprehensive Playground Safety Inspections across three South Wairarapa playgrounds, capturing core asset data and assessing compliance with NZS 5828:2015.

Using the Safety Culture platform and tailored inspection forms, we identified hazards, rated risks, and provided clear, independent assessments of equipment and surfacing.

We also conducted a Level 3 Playground Commissioning Inspection for a new playground at Lake Ferry in accordance with the Standards providing additional manufacturer, model and warranty data.

Our reporting gives Council a concise view of condition and compliance, supporting a shift toward proactive, evidence‑based maintenance and long‑term planning.

Project Benefit

Our independent playground safety inspections were carried out in accordance with NZS 5828:2015, and provide clear, unbiased reporting, helping South Wairarapa District Council’s parks managers make informed decisions about the safety of their public playground equipment and surfacing.
