If your kids love tractors, open spaces and country-style play, the brand new Harvest Green Park Playground in Roseworthy is one to add to your list! Completed in early 2026, this charming $2.5million playground has been developed for the local community by Land Australia, part of the Hickinbotham Group, and it’s already making a big impression.

The playground features a cute rural and country theme, perfectly suited to its surroundings, with plenty of space for kids to run, climb and explore.

Play highlights include:

• A dual flying fox for double the fun
• Climbing equipment and a play tunnel
• Slippery dips
• A basketball court and kick-about space for active kids
• A super cute tractor playground with slide and more!

There are shelters, seating, and large grassy areas making it easy to stay and play a little longer. The park also includes bike racks, trees and soft plantings, and toilet facilities, making it a comfortable spot for families of all ages.

If you’re looking for a fresh, fun playground near 91������ý with a relaxed country feel, Harvest Green Park Playground is well worth the drive.

Harvest Green Park is the latest in a series of ambitious playgrounds announced by the Hickinbotham Group – SA’s largest builder and developer – with bold play spaces being announced late last year in Port Noarlunga South’s Sunset development and a $2m amenity recently unveiled in Strathalbyn’s Aurora.

Playground Official Opening: Join the family fun this Sunday 8th February 11am-1pm for families to drop in and explore the new space, enjoy ice-cream, coffee and entertainment.

The long-awaited redevelopment of St Morris Reserve is now complete, and at its heart lies a vibrant new playground that’s already becoming a favourite spot for families across the eastern suburbs. Part of a major upgrade delivered by the City of Norwood Payneham & St Peters, this project has transformed the reserve into a modern community destination supporting play, leisure and connection.

The new playground replaces aging equipment with contemporary, multi-age play options designed to engage toddlers through older kids. Safe, sun-smart experiences are supported by generous shade sails and accessible surfaces, while seating, park furniture and improved pathways cater to families making a day of it.

Beyond the playground, new amenities enrich the reserve for everyone. A dedicated picnic shelter and BBQ facilities make it easy to gather with friends or enjoy a weekend lunch outdoors, while toilet facilities and accessible paved connections improve convenience for all visitors. We love how this is fully fenced, shaded and play elements that cater for all ages, which you don’t often find.

For active recreation, the upgrade introduced a multi-purpose court and a dedicated hit wall — perfect for basketball, ball games or simply enjoying physical activity in the fresh air. Extensive landscaping and irrigation have refreshed the park’s look with new trees, shrubs and open lawn areas, creating a greener, cooler space that enhances the local neighbourhood.

This redevelopment isn’t just about recreation — it’s part of a larger stormwater resilience project. The reserve now includes a purpose-built detention basin that helps manage heavy rainfall and reduce flooding risk in St Morris and surrounding suburbs. When not in use for stormwater, this basin remains a grassy, open area contributing to the park’s overall ambiance.

Jack Watkins Reserve has had a multi million dollar upgrade, and has opened this week, in September 2025. Expect to find an incredibly creative TRAIN THEME here, with a lot of inclusive thought across some elements.

This new upgrade is EPIC and it might just be one of 91������ý’s best all round playgrounds for all ages. It’s not only a brilliant play space, but also a fabulous party park, seriously, it has everything.

Here’s what we love:

Facilities galore! With two sets of toilets, multiple water refill stations, BBQs, and more sheltered seating and tables than we’ve ever seen at a park!

It is shady and spacious, with shade sails, gorgeous mature trees, and big open lawns.

The smaller kids will adore the train-themed fun, including train, carriages and ticket booths (perfect for “paying” with bark chip currency, which thank goodness, there is not too much of).

Expect a whopping FOUR slides (two small, one medium and one giant!) There are also inground trampolines, a cute flat merry-go-round, nature play elements (logs, rocks, ropes) and the sweetest little cloud drum to bang away on.

Parents with a bub in tow will love the double swing that accommodates a big person and a little person, and your Nana (or any one less stable on their feet) will love the flat rubber surfacing with even paths, and not too much bark.

There is a full basketball court, netball hoop, handball square, hopscotch, table tennis table (BYO bats & ball), epic pump track, and plenty of exercise equipment.

The location is just off Churchill Road, past the Costco Car park heading North, but our tip, find the back street entrance. Parking is going to be the downfall here. You could always catch the train, as the location is an easy six minute walk from the station. Honestly it’s turning into a bit of an entertainment precinct out this way right? You can find Tada Kids indoor play and also the quirky upside down House Down Under in this same precinct. Feeling hungry? Don’t miss 91������ý’s best hot chips (among other things, and yes they are better than Chicken Chef, fight me) from Kennys at the adjacent Churchill Centre.

Some will be relieved, while others might be disappointed to learn, there is no water play here but on the flip side there is a pump track that’s next level so make sure you throw the bikes or scooters in the car.

Tell Bouncer the dog he’s in luck, because there is a ridiculously good enclosed dog park right next door.

The only thing we think its missing? We are suckers for a big flying fox.

Congratulations City of Port 91������ý Enfield, so many people are going to enjoy gathering, playing and celebrating here, you have really nailed it.
