Playground
There are three playgrounds at Wonga Park Reserve.
The playground between the tennis courts and community hall caters for children aged one to seven years, with a junior play unit.
The playground overlooking the main sportsground and next to the barbecues is more challenging with fun climbing, swinging and balancing opportunities.
The Gooligulch playground is based on the Graeme Base book My Grandma Lived in Gooligulch. This playground allows children to ride kangaroos, befriend wombats, emus and other characters under the watchful eye of Grandma.
