Why these ages?

Main playground has inground trampolines, water play, basket swing, rope net and slide with soft mats - well-suited for toddlers (review: 'more suited for toddlers than older kids'). Separate youth space and full skate bowl/basketball court sit above/away from main play area, giving tweens their own zone. Skate park is significant but zoned distant from tots.

    Nice big park for kids and families. The playground is fun with slides, trampolines, and a flying fox. Skate park and basketball court for older kids. Clean and safe. Good walking track and open space. Toilets and parking are nearby. Good spot for picnic or just to relax.

    This place is actually really nice for both kids and parents. The playground is quite spacious, so kids can run around and play freely. There are also plenty of seating areas that are perfect for a relaxed picnic while keeping an eye on the kids.

    The playground here is very well equiped and provides lots of fun. Soft mats on all small children play areas, has water play, jungle gyms, sound play, a basketball court, a skate park for bigger kids and a flying fox all situated on Marlborough Park which is a cool place for a leisurely stroll even if you aren’t here for the playground. There is also a nice big car park with public facilities. Worth checking out.

    Very good playground and skatepark there is a basketball court and a really good scate park which has a lot of kids playing all day. I would recommend this park for beginner scaters. The scate park is also used as a pump track for mountain bikes.

    A nice Compaq park to take the kids or hangout and play catch for the grownups. Bring your BBQ grill, a tent and mats to layout. There is public parking and a park centre with a hall in case you want to rent it for your activities. Nicely located near shops and quick take out in case you need to top up the snacks!

    Awesome park with plenty of facilities, including a Basketball court, Skatepark, climbing frames and a playground, which is more suited for toddlers, than older kids. There is also a flying fox up the hill, but be warned, it gives a bit of …

    Great park with playground and combined netball/basketball court and some outdoor exercise equipment and public toilet facilities. Tip: If getting here by car, search for "Marlborough Parking" to be directed accordingly as there is no on street parking available.

    Great place to play for children. Emergency public toilet facility and also plenty of parking available. Plus, a badminton court and basketball court are available. A big Skateboard park is also available, it's a pleasure to see when advanced skaters are there.

    It seems like this playground has had a recent make over, it is fantastic to see the designers have used shade sails in some areas. There was a notice stating the skate area was about to get an update. There were 2 public toilets there.
