This is a young climber's paradise. It's a great playground for the pre-school set with modern equipment and a couple of interesting twists to make it more exciting than the norm. Not only is there a climbing frame, but it can be pushed around with the kids on it. Extra-brave kids can climb all the way up to the second storey to cling on as an adult spins them.

The main playground has the mandatory slide and a nice "car" motif, but the kid-friendly rock-climbing feature is what makes this playground unique. It is also well shaded, which is always appreciated by parents. Unfortunately, despite being built recently, it has a tambark surface that leaves kids dirty and can be a choking hazard for crawlers.
