EDWARD BENNETT OVAL

Public BBQ

Tucked away on Edward Bennett Drive, this charming community oval manages to be everything to everyone. The playground equipment, while showing its age, still draws children with climbing frames, slides, and that peculiar learn-to-ride track circling like a miniature Tour de France circuit. The barbecue facilities sit ready for weekend family gatherings, though the toilets fall into that category of public conveniences that serve their purpose while reminding you not to linger. The disability access at the toilet block suggests council planning overlooked basic principles of gravity and erosion. What strikes you most is the genuine community spirit - families, seniors, and children creating that rare thing in modern suburbia: actual neighbourly interaction. The oval stretches invitingly, perfect for everything from serious football to watching your dog ignore increasingly desperate return calls. Despite aging equipment, it remains a delightfully unpretentious Australian gem.
