Why these ages?

Destination scale with 4m metal slide, tubular slide, flying fox, rotonet and hamster wheel makes it a magnet for primary and tween kids. Junior train multi-play, infant swings, and a couple of toddler-sized mini playgrounds exist but reviewers explicitly warn to mind small children around the hamster wheel because older kids build momentum, so parents need to hover on 2-4yos. Wide flat paths, seating with sightlines, accessible carousel. No water, road or 5m+ hazards described.

Accessibility

Wheelchair accessible

+ Wheel-on roundabout / carousel+ Step-free path to the play+ Ramped play platform

Access notes

A koru shaped promenade winds to the top of the central mound giving children in wheelchairs or prams independent access to the elevated viewing platform, the large slide and the flying fox, and the inground accessibility carousel is described as purpose built for inclusive play.

Awesome park. Love the big slides. There's a hamster wheel, rope towers, many picnic tables & seats and a couple of the spinning contraptions kids love. There's also a couple mini playgrounds for toddler sized humans. Would be better if the flying fox was back up but still overall a great park.

Huge playground for the little ones and big kids. It's huge and with lot of equipments. It will keep the kids busy for hours and hours. Parking is available next to the park and if you are lucky a food truck will also be present next to the park to have some snacks if needed.

What a playground! Christchurch really knows how to build playgrounds. Great space for small children as well as the older ones. Parking right next door. It could do with a toilet though, not sure if there is one close by but that is all that lets it down

Amazing playground our kids love it. There is an awesome range of equipment from stuff for wee ones through to more adventurous pieces. Would be a good spot to host a kids birthday party, heaps of open spaces around and loads of parking. As with most parks in Selwyn it could do with a few trees planted in.

This will be an absolutely awesome park once the new part is completed. I've worked on the new section under construction which will include skate bowls, family areas, and jungle gym type installations. Great family entertainment for free.

I'm told by my 7yr old master that this park is the best and that we will be coming back every day (we live 20mins drive away). A nice assortment of activities, good thought towards safety also.
