Cool wee play ground definitely needs a toilet though!
Swarbrick Drive Reserve
Swarbrick Drive, Te Awamutu 3800
Why these ages?
Well equipped neighbourhood play with in-ground carousel and in-ground trampolines adding variety on top of basket/infant swings, balance equipment and a small multi-play with slide. Some tree shade. Toddler-friendly kit and low-height equipment mean toddlers can free-range; older kids get modest interest from the trampolines and carousel.
What's here
Swarbrick Drive Reserve is a well equipped neighbourhood playground in the Waipa District, with an in-ground trampoline and carousel adding a bit more variety than a typical suburb park.
