Here at Melville Mums, we’re always on the look out for new places to go and things to do with the kids. Here’s all the details on a playground in Leeming that’s a welcome addition for local families.
Located at Peter Ellis Park in Leeming, this new playground has something for children of all ages. It may seem small but, with lots of different play equipment, it’s enough to keep even the most energetic kids entertained.
The play equipment includes a slide, climbing wall, nature play-inspired swinging bridge, monkey bars, fireman’s pole, climbing net and nest swing. And there is, of course, lots of sand to dig and play in!
The playground is situated at one end of a massive reserve with ample open space to kick a ball around, and there are even basketball courts a short distance away.
There are no toilets at the park itself, but the playground directly backs onto Leeming Forum where there are public amenities, cafes and shops.
As with many Perth playgrounds, the main disappointment is the lack of shade sails, meaning the sand and equipment is likely to get very hot during the summer. That aside, it’s a great little play space for families in Leeming and surrounding suburbs.
Where: Peter Ellis Park, off Farrington Rd, Leeming (between Striker Indoor Sports & Fitness and Leeming Forum)
