Here’s a playground that’s great for older kids who like to climb. Located in ‘The Sanctuary’ in Fletcher on Kurraka Drive past the Community Centre, it boasts a large climbing frame that’s ideal for energetic kids.
There’s also spinny things and swings (no toddler swings though).
There’s a smaller play area that’s covered in shade cloth which is perfect for younger kids especially with the soft foam flooring.
Plus for adults, there’s plenty of covered seating, a BBQ and a bubbler as well as views of the oval, surrounding hills and Hexham Wetlands. Bring a picnic or cook up some snags.
Definitely worth a visit.
