Steering Wheel on Bush Pole

778-SWB

The Steering Wheel on Bush Pole is an all-abilities playground steering wheel for schools, early learning centres or public parks, mounted on a Jarrah bush pole so children can grab hold and steer wherever their imagination takes them.

The fully turnable stainless steel wheel invites solo play or a shared adventure between children, and gripping and spinning builds fine motor skills and hand-eye coordination. As imaginative play equipment it needs no instruction, making it a natural draw for independent play and a strong companion piece within a wider bush pole play zone.

Assembled in our O’Connor WA workshop, a locally sourced West Australian Jarrah bush pole (subject to availability) with a painted colour top supports a stainless steel steering wheel that turns freely on a robust central mount, finished with a weather-resistant water-based oil. The structure is designed in accordance with AS 4685, and colour options are customisable to suit your playground palette. The wheel height can be adjusted to suit children of different needs, so smaller children or a child seated in a wheelchair can take hold, an inclusive option.
