I feel funny even writing about this park, because it is so big and central to the suburb of Kingswood, but I will highlight it because I only discovered it when I started systematically checking out parks during COVID. I have driven past it so many times as a local Penrith girl, but I hadn’t really looked at it. It is on the corner of Bringelly Road and Orth Street in Kingswood.
There is a wide variety of options at this park, and there is sunshade, and there are places for parents to sit. Mostly I don’t get to sit down though cause the kids are moving around to all the options. There is a public book library and a ‘tin bin’ or food library, a leave what you can, take what you need sort of situation.
The playground equipment includes slides, monkey bars, swings, and there is ample sunshade. There is a good ranger of options for different ages, though perhaps nothing for teenagers. There isn’t a rope climbing structure but there are quite a few climbing points on this set of equipment. There is a pretend cafe under one platform, and an abacus under another, so there are a few things for the smaller children. It is surrounded by grass and even currently a community garden of sorts. There are not a lot of places for adults to sit. Parking can be a bit tough, the side street tends to be full, I generally have to park on Bringelly Road.
I also love all of the animals on the fence around the park. I just had to take photos of them too.
