Why these ages?

Explicitly 'well suited to toddlers and early primary children'. Artificial turf, multi-play with slide, basket swing for young ones. On-site paddling pool is a water risk requiring supervision. Small compact space, off-street parking (no road-adjacent risk). Not much for tweens. Good compact toddler destination but water needs watching.

If you're looking for a nice quite place to go to sit down and have lunch. It is close to Pak n Save if you need to do a grocery shop. And there are plenty of parking spaces and shading from the beautiful trees.

A good lil playground across from the pools, for the kids to unwind at. Across the round about heading to Ohope, there is also a tranquil lil stream to swim in. Great for a City

A great expanse of grassed area which hosts various sports games from time to time. Great place to walk the dog. Outdoor markets every Sunday.
