Outdoor fun for Schofields residents at new park

Published on 09 March 2020

Schofield residents will soon have a whole new park to enjoy.

Work is expected to be completed by July on the $840,600 park at the corner of Oallen Place and Bannaby Crescent, Schofields.

Blacktown City Mayor Tony Bleasdale OAM said, “Council is committed to providing the best possible recreation facilities for our residents in more than 400 parks and 1000 reserves across the City.

“A feature of this park will be the retention of a heritage-listed oak tree as the focal point of the new facilities. There will be seating, paths and shade, included to make the park as comfortable and accessible to as many people in the community as possible.”

Additional native trees, grasses and shrubs are being planted within the park along the creek line to provide a natural habitat for the native bird and animal population.

The new park will include a swing set with an inclusive net swing, in-ground trampolines, main fort including viewing platforms and slide, tee-pee fort with slide and net bridge to large net climbing structure and spinner.
