First time visiting this Matron Ruby Grant Park that it’s very close to my workplace on the right hand corner side. Parking is very limited on the left hand side on a busy road intersection of the traffic lights when I saw a cop car pulling the car over to check if he is speeding or doing drugs along that road path in Joynton Avenue Zetland. Dog’s friendliness playing with the ball with the owner. Plenty of Seats to relax have morning tea with the group along with 3 toilets saying all genders. Cafe shops just between the playground area for the kids to play whilst the adults can enjoy their great time. We played some activities of catch the ball using our friend’s badminton to enjoy the outdoors with friends. I enjoyed my stay there at this wonderful park that one day I will come back again. There are people living in apartments building blocks for them to see this wonderful features of the parklands. Picnic area for the whole family to enjoy. I will come back here again. Overall feedback possibly a bbq area for the people to enjoy the view of the place.

Great park in the local neighbourhood. Has some good swings for the kids. Toilets are also there. There is a good cafe as well so everything you need.

For the first time in 2025 of this year, we went to this park called Matron Ruby Grant Park at Zetland, which is also near where my close friend's workplace is anyway. We had a nice time there. The weather was cloudy for a second there. However, after that, the sun came out when we were about to play a lot of activities with me and my friends. The park is nice as always, no complaints here 😀

It's a little park most suited 3 to 6 yr olds close to a cafe so easy to have a coffee or meal if kids are ok not being closely supervised.
