Hi Matt,
It looks to me as though you have achieved what you wanted.
My only comment would be that you don't seem to have tagged any gates in the fence.  From squinting at the aerial imagery, I THINK there might be one on the South side? I assume that you have better local knowledge than I do.
Regards,Peter

 Thank you all for the advice, I feel I have corrected the mapping of this now but if I've missed anything please me know https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/96810510

The building does not provide entry to the park, entry is only via the gates in the fence. The part of the building with the toilets is very much outside the playground, however the side of the building which faces the park has a small shelter and a mosaic inside it.

Hi Mat

To get into the building, are the doors within the playground or
outside? If inside, then perhaps it makes sense to keep the relation
in existence - to express the building being part of the playground
site, even if it is at the edge. Otherwise, I guess I'd delete the
relation, after copying its tags and pasting them onto the
playground's way. (Deleting a relation is easy to do, just delete it -
but only if you're sure!)

In either case, you also move the building to its rightful place, and
probably you'd want to join the building way onto the edge of the
playground way, either by merging corresponding nodes together, or
using the "join to way" tool in josm.

I wonder why someone chose to map it using a relation, though -
perhaps that is, after all, a good way to express the toilet block
"belonging to" the playground?

The thing that is making this tricky is the area is modelled with relations which I am not familiar with but keen to learn more about.
