Nice little playground across the road from the Foursquare. Places to eat and hide in the shade. And the little lookout has a nice view too.

Set back off Seabury Avenue quite some distance, this playground is a bit basic with limited equipment albeit under shadecloth. BUT But but .... the ***COOLEST*** pirate ship forecastle replica built by a local Good Sort a few years for the kids to clamber around on and get lost in their imagination! There is also a Lookout up some steps where you can get a feel for the lay of the land and Manawatu River direction Foxton. You are allowed to park on the grass field bordering Seabury Avenue.
