Why these ages?

Junior area only partly fenced (Swanson Rd side) — parents still need supervision on unfenced sides. Infant swing, junior slide and flying fox suit toddlers and young kids; reviewers say 'best for 6 and under'. Limited tween appeal — older kids sent across road to Swanson Station park.

Accessibility

Access notes

The surface is bark per the description, a hard barrier for wheelchair users, corroborated by a review praising the good quality bark. On street parking is available, but no accessible toilet or firm path is mentioned.

    Nice playground in good condition. Always ducks hanging around for young kids to feed. Good quality bark. Big tree in very close proximity for shade.

    Great for younger kids 6 and under, the Swanson station park across the Rd is better for older kids. Fence on one side of the park (Swanson Rd). Lots of ducks.
