Good playground just by the new artificial oval at Gore Hill. Large, with a variety of equipment mostly suited to younger kids. There is a small amount of parking onsite or on the Pacific highway adjacent to the oval. There are also a basketball half court and handball courts next to the playground. Toilets onsite in the clubhouse.
