Holloway Road Play Area

It is a pretty small play area! The photo below shows all the play equipment. There are two swings and a see saw.



It is rather charming though. There is a lot of shade, two picnic tables and comfy wooden seating. The gardens are well maintained. I get the feeling locals make good use of this space.

Krull St park

The girls needed cheering up after saying goodbye to their grandparents today so we decided to do a new park.



This is a recently restored park (no graffiti!) with a great mix of activities. There is a slow flying fox that is easy for younger kids to manage themselves.

There is a cool mesh and plastic rock climbing wall, three slides, see saw, merry go round, basketball hoop and a large grassy hill to roll down.

This park has a nice view, overlooking Island Bay and over Newtown. There are lots of trees nearby and we saw tui and wood pigeon. Very tranquil.
