Mamma loves a playground that only improves with age - this is one of them. Mamma first visited this playground when it was opened in 2014, and is pleased to report that SEVEN YEARS ON, it is better than ever!

There is still what we love:

the enormous rocket ship slide
water play area
shaded sandpit
giant bee and cricket
gorgeous green space and creek surroundings
undercover BBQ area
ample swings including a nest swing and one for the disabled
double flying foxes
basketball hoop
excellent amenities

But now the trees are mature the forest patch is great for sneaky games and there are plenty of shady spots to sit and have a view of the kids playing, including a viewing platform overlooking the flying foxes. We just love it here!
