Why these ages?

Fully fenced play area with toddler swings, slides, tunnels and climbing frames — reviewer says 'great playground for little ones, very popular because of it'. Community skate park sits next door but the fence separates it from the toddler zone. Grass soccer field alongside plus harbour views and community garden. Adjoining rebuilt (2018) skate park with new bowl and ramps is a great tween draw.

    What an amazing playground, got lots of character and some truly amazing views. The equipment here is a tad old but all perfectly functional, there is a massive soccer field just a step down from the playground itself, great for kicking balls and running around. If your kid is into skating there is also a skatepark next to the playground also, great place to burn some energy with the kids.
