Splash pads are a fantastic place for children to enjoy cool water on a hot and sunny day in the summer. They are typically open from the end of June to September (weather permitting), from noon until 7 p.m.

New Splash Pad for Valleymore Park

Valleymore Park, located at 338 Spillsbury Dr., currently has a playground and half basketball court. The proposed new splash pad would be located in the large open area northeast of the existing playground. The splash pad will have approximately 14-18 play features. The splash pad will not affect any of the other current park amenities.

The City of Peterborough has a 10-year strategic plan to enhance the City’s outdoor water play facility needs through the development of new facilities and the replacement of aging facilities at various park locations across the City. The City currently operates six splash pads throughout the City.

Community Feedback

An online survey opened May 10, 2023 and closed on June 5, 2023 with 205 people providing feedback. Accessible walkways, shaded seating areas, and colourful aesthetics and nature were some of the ideas shared by community members through the survey consultation. Community feedback assists the City with designing a splash pad that will meet the needs of the neighbourhoods.

Full details from the survey are available in the Survey Response Report.

When will the Splash pad be ready for community use...

Valleymore Park will be constructed in 2024 and open for the Summer season 2025.
