A new playground opened at Waitara Park in March 2019 and ready for you and the kids to explore. There is something for everyone, with areas that cater to different ages and abilities. Plus, coffee is just a short walk away at the PCYC!
This Waitara Park Playground gets the tick of approval from us in all areas! There’s not only a huge range of play equipment to all ages and abilities (which means that toddlers, preschoolers and primary school-aged siblings can all enjoy it!), it also features:
- A fence the whole way around (excellent news if you have a runner who likes to explore!)
- Shade sails
- Picnic shelters, seating & BBQs
- Nearby accessible toilets
- Nearby paths for scooting and riding bikes
- Nearby coffee
- Nearby parking (street or underground)
Plus, there’s also lots of room to run around on the oval too (providing there are no sporting matches happening, of course!). Thank you, Hornsby Council!
The roundabout is lots of fun (and no dangerous edges!)

PCYC toddler play area
If it starts to rain or you’re in need of a decent coffee or snack, the PCYC is just a few minutes walk around to the other side of Mark Taylor Oval. You can dine at the cafe, or take it away back to the playground. There’s also a lovely little indoor play area for toddlers and preschoolers, too.
