It's a great place for scooters and bikes. Just too bad there isn't enough shaded areas.

This park is the greatest thing that has happened to the area.The park is popular for all age.The only thing that it lacks is SUFFICIENT SHADE during the day and some sort of LIGHTING in the afternoon. This is a picture i have taken, if you look closely where the kids are still playing table tennis and at the skate park in the DARK. #Dai Le , #Mayor of fairfield Frank Carbone , Can we as a community get some lights for the park??

Great park. Very well designed with a lot of facilities in a relatively small space. Love the sports wall and the misting station. The landscaping is surprisingly well done too. There's a beautiful mix of mostly native trees, shrubs and flowering groundcover, all of which seems to be growing very well. It'll be even better when the trees get a bit bigger and start to throw some shade. Needs a BBQ area and more bins.

We took our grandchildren here to ride their new go karts. Plenty of open space. Lovely paths, a skate park, basketball courts, a tennis wall, ping pong tables. Exercise equipment and even a water mister. All well maintained.

This park features a number of exercise spaces to keep fit and active. Such as a skate park, outdoor gym, walking trails and a handful of sports courts. Stage 2 upgrades to the park coming later in 2025 will include a ninja obstacle course and possibly a playground. The central plaza features a number of seating areas and two misting stations to cool down during hot days.
