Mount Hawthorn is home to the spacious and resourceful Menzies Park. Although it is primarily used as a sporting ground, Menzie Park has a fully fenced playground area for the kids, an outdoor barbecue area, and an indoor facility that offers function spaces for hire, change rooms, toilets, and a kitchenette. Your four-legged friends are also welcome within the approved dog exercise areas, and are allowed off-leash unless the reserve is being used for sporting or club-related events.

If you're after a fun day out packed with entertainment options then Braithwaite Park is the place to be. A fully fenced out-door area that includes two playgrounds for both older and younger children to enjoy, with exciting features such as stepping stones, ropes, and obstacles courses, your children will be entertained for hours. Braithwaite Park also provides barbecue facilities, water fountaints, public toilets, and picnic areas perfect for a day out with the family or birthday celebrations.
