Centenary of ANZAC Reserve is a well-regarded dog-friendly park in Castle Hill.
Under the Companion Animals Act 1998, dogs must be on-leash at all times in all parks and public places. Dogs are prohibited within 10 metres of children's playground equipment and food preparation areas, from active sports fields during organised sport, public bathing areas, school grounds, and child care centres. Dog faeces must be removed immediately. (Source: The Hills Shire Council — Stay out of the Doghouse, thehills.nsw.gov.au.)
What I like most about this Reserve is the parking area and the display that has been kept for educating children about traffic rules. There are two grounds. Though there are toilets available but I never found them open. This reserve can easily be identified by the Australia flag flying high and a community hall. One may walk around the ANZAC Reserve but that could be a bit boring! The best part of this Reserve is the trail which starts after crossing over the Wrights road and then continuing straight through good growth of bushes and trees which finally meets the Kellyville school. After taking two consecutive right turns one may meet the trail again. Through this trail one may reach Barney mulani stadium also.
2 cricket ovals/ Footy ovals on site, along with a community centre, clean toilets, small kids play area, a unique road safety type area for kids to ride bikes, sports club change facilities, and plenty of parking. The first oval cricket pitch is lower than the rest of ground and as such gets flooded even with little rain. Overall a decent park for play and walk/ run. Kellyville village is right opposite with major supermarkets and plenty of food options.
Large open sports fields with circular walking track. Fenced play equipment area for the little ones. No toilet facilities unless community centre, or toilet block is open during organised sport. However close to village shopping centre.
The grounds are good for cricket. Some parts of the ground the lawns are not maintained well enough. The parking is towards the far end of the ground and is a long walk to the other end.
Top spot indeed & worthy of great reviews. Hard to knock anything at all & it’s a gift for the locals . Well placed & literally across the road from the shops . Never sell out on this iconic ground for high rise apartments & corruption .
