… Habitats Bushland Management Strategy 2012. Aloha Gardens Templestowe VIC 3106 Australia … Aloha Reserve …
Aloha Reserve comprises most of the Urban Miscellaneous (Reynolds Road), Biosite 35 in Council’s Healthy Habitats Bushland Management Strategy 2012. The large local park 7340m2 (0.75 ha) runs along a drainage line and is well established with mature, remnant vegetation.
The Reserve connects Reynolds Road to Aloha Gardens but due to lack of footpaths or bus stops along this section of Reynolds Road, there is little pedestrian traffic through the Reserve. This steep site should be managed primarily as a conservation site. Consideration could be given to seating.

… and St. Charles Borromeo Primary Schools. Browning Drive Templestowe VIC 3106 Australia … Browning Reserve …
Browning Reserve is a large (6,029m²), well located reserve for residents south of Serpells Road and the families of Serpell and St. Charles Borromeo Primary Schools.
It provides a pedestrian link through to Glen Orchard Close and there is a bus stop outside the Reserve on Browning Drive. Upgraded in 2008, the reserve is well maintained with attractive landscaping, good visibility and a playspace. There are three other playspaces within a 400 metre radius.
Paths are in reasonable condition and are a mixture of asphalt and granitic sand. Additional low landscaping to the Glen Orchard Close pedestrian link would also improve its appearance, but in general this is a pleasant and functional reserve and a low priority for upgrade.
Browning Reserve Playground
Children will love exploring and playing at Browning Reserve. The 'bird hide' cubby has a slide and cargo net and views over the swings, rocker and see-saw. There is plenty of seating shaded from the large Eucalypt trees.
Suitable age group: 1 to 6 years

Sarah Reserve is a large (0.8 hectare) open reserve that provides informal access from Sarah Crescent (and Serpells Road) through to Reynolds Road (bus stop). However there is a steep bank down to Reynolds Road from the Reserve and steps down the bank could be considered.
The Reserve is located in a low residential density area where a playspace would not normally be provided. Pettys Reserve is located only 250 metres away on the opposite side of Reynolds Road.
Extensive additional tree planting to improve the amenity of the Reserve, while still providing large open grass areas for informal recreation, should be a priority.
