Well this looks just a little bit epic doesn’t it. The exciting new playspace Salisbury Oval has opened and for the older and more adventurous kids, it is right up their alley thanks to an enormous slide tower that is a challenge to climb but great fun on the way down!

Plenty of new amenities to enjoy as well, with the playground also including a flying fox, swings, see saw, carousel, nature play elements, trampoline, sand pit and rock climbing wall. There’s also fitness equipment (decoration we call it) , a multi-use sports court and a grassed area for all the sports.

Did we mention the toilets? Because thankfully they have added them here along with a BBQ area and picnic setting. Plenty of parking too along Brown Terrace.

Word of warning, it looks stunning but when we went along with a few under 5s, we were a bit disappointed at the lack of things to do. Our crew were so excited but just a tad too small to really enjoy this one.

  • Find it at: Sturt Ave, Colonel Light Gardens Mortlock Park in Colonel Light Gardens had a fab upgrade in 2021. Located right next to Colonel Light Primary School and across the oval from the Goodwood Baseball Club. With equipment perfect for toddlers to upper primary school kids there is sure to be something to suit most. Lets scroll through our highlights from the upgrade.... - Lots of climbing webs/ nets, monkey bars & swinging beams - Giant xylophone, in ground trampoline & four way seesaw - Merry go round/ in ground spinny thing (thats the technical playground analyst term for it) goes REALLY FAST! - Seated flying fox - Toilets!!!!! - Two different slides of different sizes The new section is definitely more suited to older kids (5+), but all of the old section is still there which has plenty of play options for toddlers. There are obviously still lots of room for ball games with the ovals next door & the bike jumps are still there too. Just South-West of the play equipment (walk past the hall) on the edge of the oval is an awesome little BMX track. Depending on riding ability, we think the BMX track is…
