Streets Beach
A refurbished and rejuvenated Streets Beach will reopen on Saturday June 27, just in time for the school holidays and for children who dare to embrace the chillier temperatures. The boat pool and aquativity reopened in May for the public to utilise and enjoy in line with government health and safety guidelines.
Riverside Green Playground
After undergoing an essential soft-fall restoration, the most popular playground south of the river will also reopen to the public this Saturday.
Arbour Quiz Walk and Interactive Games
From this weekend onward, young ones can learn a thing or two about the history and landmarks of the parkland through a hanging Arbour installation. Interactive games of hopscotch and I Spy will also dot the 1km long Arbour path, so children can hop, step and jump their way throughout.
Scavenger Hunt- Roma Street Parkland
At Roma Street Parkland, kids can explore new trails and uncover hidden gems as they venture through the winding paths of the spectacle garden right through to the tree-tops of the rainforest. The Nature Scavenger Hunt is the perfect outdoor school holiday activity; paired with a final pit stop at The Garden Room Café. From Saturday until Sunday July 12 children will be eligible to receive a free ice-cream with every kids meal purchased.
