laurimar drainage reserve, doreen
/Mamma took the kids to a recently upgraded playground with slides, swings, climbing stones, monkey bars and a timber frame that invites these little explorers to let their imaginations run wild.
This playground sits just off Hazel Glen Drive, which is a busy road, but what really surprised us was what we found beyond the swings. A hidden pocket of trees and a creek that’s peaceful and quiet, with a creek that is shallow enough to hop across.
Mamma loves this spot because the kids can have a blast on the playground and then head over to the creek for some nature play. It’s tucked away, so it feels like a secret treasure for the little ones to stumble upon it.
It’s a small area, but just enough for the kids to explore, although they’ll probably get a bit muddy crossing the creek, so be sure to wear gumboots if you’re thinking of exploring here!

Mamma's special mention:
After your adventure in the reserve, take a stroll along the trail toward Jo Jayz Café.
