Joe Bradfield Centre Park, Carina

I’m excited to share one of my favourite hidden gems: the Joe Bradfield Centre Park! This charming spot is perfect for spending time on a trike or safely teaching your little ones how to ride their bikes. What makes it even more delightful are the adorable miniature traffic signs scattered throughout the park—perfect for helping kids learn about the real world while having fun!

One of the best features? The park is fully enclosed by a fence. When I step inside and close the gate behind me, I can’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, knowing my little adventurer is safe. I stumbled upon this treasure during a visit to my local Rhyme Time at the Carina Library, and I’ve been hooked ever since!

Here are just a few reasons why the area around Joe Bradfield Centre Park is a must-visit:

- Convenient On-Site Parking: No need to worry about finding a spot!

- Proximity to Carina Library: This quaint library not only offers a cozy atmosphere but also has an amazing Rhyme Time program that your kids will love.

- Community Hall Events: Keep an eye out for occasional pop-up events hosted by Play Matters Australia in the park and community hall.

- Multiple Play Areas: There’s a park within the enclosed traffic tracks fenced area, plus another park outside the fenced area, giving kids plenty of options.

- Tennis Courts: I often let my little one run wild here, kicking a ball and exploring the courts like a free-range chicken! It’s great fun when we have the courts to ourselves.

- Basketball and Netball Courts: Conveniently situated right behind the tennis courts.

With so many ways to entertain yourself and your kids, Joe Bradfield Centre Park is truly a little jewel in Carina. Grab your trike or bike, and come discover this delightful spot for yourself!
