Brown Hill Creek Playground

Growing up Brown Hill Creek was among my all time favourite playgrounds, and I know that it still is a favourite among many children today.
The park itself is great, with the scenic Brown Hill Creek running in between two fairly impressive playgrounds. There are ducks, a wooden bridge, enormous trees and stunning greenery. It really is as pretty as a picture.
Although the children love it, the park is also a popular refuge among adults for Summer barbeques, walks with the dog and fitness groups. It is clearly a popular playground, and rightfully so.
However as a local I regularly pass by, and admittedly, I have had a bad experience. In fact I was followed by a man lurking in the playground… I know, I know, alarm bells are ringing.
In all my years this is the only negative experience I have encountered and I honestly believe it could happen anywhere. I think it is just a reminder that no matter where you may be, parents need to keep a firm eye on their children.
Not to end on a sour note, I still think that with parental guidance the playground is safe and deserves a five star rating. My sister often takes her children to this playground and it is always an enjoyable experience, even if the kids never want to go home.
Please note, this playground is also known as Mitcham Reserve.
