Millwater new park a great hit with families

Wednesday, May 15, 2019

The playground on Bonair Crescent, Auckland, although only a few weeks old, is already a hit with local families.

The park boasts a half court with basketball and netball hoops, a playground with a seesaw, slide, basket swings, in-ground trampolines all under cover, a rope climber and wobbly goals, a fitness area with callisthenics equipment, a large lawn area for ball games, and a network of paths around its perimeter.

Opened in early May, the playground at Millwater’s southern end was built in partnership with a local developer and Hibiscus and Bays Local Board and has been dubbed by some ‘the park which has something for everyone’.

Board chair Julia Parfitt says that local families can enjoy a great spot right on their doorstep.

“Picnic tables are arranged around the park and as the fruit trees grow, they will add to the park’s character producing apples, guavas and lemons for the community to enjoy,” Parfitt said.

Adults and teens have a fitness work out area which is the first of its kind in Millwater.
