Every neighbourhood needs a pocket park and Warranwood has got a cool, green, shiny one!

Don’t get me wrong, this one is little - Little John to be precise - but that is all you need. A tunnel slide, a set of swings, some tell-the-time spinning wall thing, a bunch of monkey bars, a rocking leaf and a spinning pole. Add some ropes to climb on and a rock climbing wall or a fireman’s pole … Mamma guesses, it actually has a little of everything!

So next time you need to find a shaded place for a run around, remember to go find Little John … and bring a basketball to shoot some hoops too.
