Bruce Comben Reserve and Playground

The newly renovated play space at Bruce Comben Reserve is designed for families with kids of all ages. It is conveniently located near the scenic Skeleton Creek, offering families the chance to explore beautiful walking and biking trails nearby.

Sports Facilities

The impressive sports facilities are great for both casual and organised activities. The reserve features spacious, well-maintained sports fields, ideal for soccer, rugby, and other team sports, as well as cricket nets for practice sessions.

There’s also a multi-purpose court suitable for basketball and netball, and two tennis courts for those who want to have a hit or practice lesson.

Playground

The playground is great for kids of all ages. You can find multiple climbing frames, including ropes and a large climbing net, where kids can test their agility and enjoy a safe challenge.

There’s a range of slides and swings, including baby swings and a couple of faster slides for the older kids.

The flying fox is a huge hit, offering a fun and thrilling ride across the park. You can also find In-Ground Trampolines for the kids to bounce around on.
