Nice little playground by Rangiora Community Centre. You find there a wee playground, big enough for purpose and with plenty of open space, as it sits whithin Rangiora Park. There is on-site parking, which is a plus, and some on-street parking, if needed, as the park borders a crescent road, quieter for parking at the back. There is some seating, some tree shade, as well, albeit the trees by the playground are still immature. You may find some overfilled bins and broken glass on the ground, which may not be best for kids, but the park is otherwise promising.

Access notes
The play equipment sits on a bark surface, a barrier for wheelchair users, though off street parking is available and a review confirms onsite parking with some seating and shade.
