HomeCo. Jindalee Playground

Open since August 2022, the HomeCo. Jindalee playground is a gorgeous and modern playground in the centre of a busy shopping precinct. The mixture of timber and steel on the main play structure, the greens and blues of the base and the lush gardens give the space a natural feel that distracts from its the bitumen surroundings.

Plenty of entertainment has been packed into the fully fenced play area with a multi-platform playground, interactive games, dual slides, rock climbing wall and ladders. There’s also a small slide mountain, see saw and a playground favourite – an in ground trampoline for energetic little legs to jump about.

Adding to the visual appeal and educational factor are colourful information posts which encourage children to engage with the space and learn some First Australian words.

What We Thought of HomeCo. Jindalee Playground

There’s not many places we appreciate more than a playground with a cafe close by, so this one was a big winner ! It’s also surprisingly spacious making it easy to forget you’re in the middle of shopping centre car park. As you might have guessed, it’s also really popular for parents’ group and play dates so definitely be prepared to share the space at peak toddler playing times.
