Kids love the inclusions at the Tingira Heights Playground

We love discovering playgrounds, and the Tingira Heights Playground has some fun inclusions. It’s a small playground, however, what it lacks in size it makes up for with equipment.

Marks Oval Playground gets an upgrade and the kids love it!

This playground looks and feels different from a standard playground in Lake Macquarie. Built from a wood ‘look-a-like’ structure, it blends into the surroundings and natural landscape. It was interesting to hear the kids comment on its unique character as well, that’s why Marks Oval Playground is worth the visit. Getting to Marks Oval Playground […]

Taylor Park at Barnsley offers so much more for kids!

Nestled among the trees in Taylor Park, is Barnsley’s playground complex. The abundance of space surrounding a multi-sectioned play zone will be the first thing you notice.
