A double Flying fox, tunnel slides, ground mounted slides, a giant swing, climbing walls, large steel pipes, a suspended climbing net, a sand pit and a water plaza with jets populate the dramatic landform. The water plaza jets offer a wide variety of programmable water effects to suit visitation patterns and seasonality. Large and powerful single jets combine with fine directional jets and low lava jets to make lines, circles, and arcs that animate and subdivide the space.
To one side of the main play and abuting the existing woodland is a 12m high tree house that challenges children to climb its interior, stand on a rope floor 9 metres off the ground and reach the top to view the sweep of the Parramatta River beyond the trees. Play is organized from most active and high energy in the east, at the giant swing, to more passive at the western edge of the berm where the sand play, the water plaza and the Tonkin Zulaikha Greer TZG designed kiosk and petal roof canopy are located.
There are also lots of picnic tables and BBQs right beside the river. Beware if you have toddlers or wild kids. The views over the river are lovely though. Cycle paths: There are many places for cycling around the park and a path goes all the way to the main Sydney Olympic park area. Shade : At the moment there is no shade over the play equipment so we were very glad to be there on a cloudy day.
Cafe : Yes, the Armory Wharf Cafe serves lovely grub, with indoor and outdoor seating, plus takeaway options. Extra : Take bikes and trikes! Or hire them onsite, check info here. Explore the many delights of Newington Armory, which is open at weekends. The Heritage Train runs at weekends too. These next two photos are by Dushan Hanuska who has great pix on Flickr.
So there you have it, a marvellous playground, especially for older children. You might also like to have a look at Silverwater Park which is further west, just by Silverwater Bridge, the playground was updated in and is much smaller, but also much quieter.
What really stands out is the brightly coloured playground and the Water Park is so cool. It has everything including a flying fox, huge rope swing, tunnel slides, spider nets, climbing wall, kids roundabout, huge tree house and loads more.
