Public toilets
Undercover picnic tables
Resident ducks that love to be fed
A sandy beach area on the banks of the Hawkesbury river

The down side :(
The Main play equipment is in the middle of the car parking road (boarded by road) which can at times be quite busy. Not good if you have fast footed little toddlers.
Also a very fine woodchip has been used on the playground which is an absolute nightmare as my two year old liked to throw it (getting it in his eyes) and my 9 month old was filthy from it and just wanted to eat it the whole time!
Bad choice of product and position for this playground.
Glossodia Park - Woodbury Reserve
Glossodia Park - Woodbury Reserve
Spinks Road (near Rural Fire brigade)
This is a great park for Toddlers through to school kids.
A great variety of equipment including 4 slides!!!!
A little concrete bike path
Undercover seating/ picnic table
Playing fields
Easy parking
At the moment there is a huge skate ramp there as a bonus for all those skate boarding kids!
Nice community feel to the park the day we were there, as lots of different families frequented the park.
(Not sure of the toilet situation as we didn't use them)
My Husband thoroughly enjoyed playing with our 2 year old at this park and would highly recommend it to fellow Daddies!
Hope you enjoy:)

Welcome to Mum's & Dad's of the Hawkesbury looking for playgrounds and fun activities!
So I am sick of trawling website trying to find great places to take my children to play.
I have started this blog in hope of helping other Mum's and Dad's find great places to spend time with their kids - Every time I go to a new park I'll add it with my opinion of the playground and surrounds!
I hope this helps. Please add any info or places you feel need to be included!
Ciao
