Updated: Mar 08, 2025

Leslie Patrick Playground is a colorful children's play area covered in soft, white sand found in Arana Hills. It is just the place to take children who love to dig - families can bring their own bucket and spade or use the digger which is onsite.

Inside the fully fenced enclosed area, there are swings, spinning flowers, slides and monkey bars to keep all ages entertained. The flat bike tracks surrounding the playground are perfect for beginner bike riders, and there is a large playing field right next door.

Leslie Patrick Playground is the ideal place to take a picnic, with several covered picnic areas, gas barbecues and modern toilets nearby. Alternatively, you can always grab something to eat across the road at Arana Hills Shopping Plaza.

Nice to know: Children will enjoy wandering across to Kedron Brook to see the many resident ducks at the shady waterhole.
