Memorial Park paddling pool and splash pad

A girl in togs grins in the water as other children splash around her. A family favourite during the warmer months, Memorial Park features a splash pad with dedicated areas for babies, toddlers, and older children. With water jets shooting up from the ground, it’s an ideal spot for kids to stay cool and entertained.

The splash pad also includes a unique super soaker – a massive bucket that fills up and tips water, perfect for all ages to enjoy. Next to the splash pad, you’ll find a fenced paddling pool for easy access. Both the pool and splash pad are open in summer from 10am to 9pm.
