Rocket Park

The baby play area equipment here is a tad old, but it is none the less an excellent playground for big and small kids. The baby playground area is completely covered in soft mats, not too high or big, and adults can walk right into the small castle with their kids which is excellent for my 2 year old.nnAll the other structures are built in seperate areas, with swings and jungle gyms and the famous rocket all spread out evenly, leaving plenty of space for kids to run around.nnThere is free parking just outside the playground, it is also the entirely fenced so you don’t have to worry about kids running onto the road outside.nnThere are also exercise equipments outside the park as well, but i think those are for adults as opposed to kids.

Good playground with fencing around road edge to keep the young ones safe. The rocket is a big draw card, as kids like to climb. There is a sun shade over the seating area. Across the road are a couple of takeaway shops and cafes. If you walk past the community centre, behind the ymca is a flying fox and tennis courts.

nI have always bought my children to this park.nIt's safe, big to run around and enjoy the playground.nPark benches to sit and have lunch or big grass area to have a picnic.nToilets are available and shops across the road if needed to buy food or drinks.nIt is a popular place for families to play or relax.

Needs updating but the kids don't notice or care they love the place. Few trees for shade during the summer and picnicking. Toilets on the grounds and shops across the road. We go the the park after the Mt Albert Pool's which is a five min walk

Very nice place for kids to enjoy and for the grown up to relax.
