Great local playground. It is a small play area, but that makes it much easier to keep an eye on the kids compared to the massive parks. A huge bonus is that it is right next to Robert Park, so you can easily combine a play on the swings with a nice walk. Well worth a visit. Kids loved the place. Please respect neighbours around the park.
