jean street playground (southland), cheltenham
There’s plenty of grass, picnic benches and a water bubbler - you’ll almost forget you’re just outside a shopping centre!
BRAND NEW PLAYGROUND ALERT!
Well technically, there has always been a playground hidden here, but this Mamma had no idea until she saw the new play structure being installed one day. Right next to Southland Train Station at the end of the Coles and Kmart car park, you’ll find an eye-catching new reserve to explore!
Starting closest to the station you’ll find a climbing structure with slides as well as multiple swings and a spinner, you can then wander down the shady path to a nature section of logs and rocks to climb before you look up and notice the car park walls have been covered in some impressive graffiti art!
Then you’ll run to the last section with rock climbing, monkey bars, parkour boards and a balance beam. There’s plenty of grass, picnic benches and a water bubbler - you’ll almost forget you’re just outside a shopping centre!
Mamma's special mention
Exhausted from all that running around? Head inside Southland and kick back and relax at V Junior!
friendship square reserve, cheltenham
This fully fenced reserve runs through Friendship Square itself and although it is small, it has plenty to offer. Especially the fact that it is FULLY FENCED!

It features a covered wooden play structure with a slide and rope climb as well as multiple swing options and even a spinning wheel for the kids (and parents) who love to get dizzy! There are plenty of picnic benches to choose from as well as a vast amount of natural shade and grass area for picnics.
This Mamma knows you’ll all have a lovely time spent at this simple little park, especially if you have little escape artists!
