For the past couple of years we've been coming to Thomas St Reserve for a Christmas BBQ with a large group of our friends. It's a great place to meet up with lots of room for the kids to run around while the big kids catch up. The BBQs are free to use and seem to be well maintained, as are the large private toilets. The huge playground is too much of a temptation for me to resist having a run around on, let alone the kids that swarm all over it. Close to the playground is plenty of grass to pull up a chair or picnic rug and relax in the shade under one of the many trees. There are also a couple of picnic benches scattered around the area, but you'll need to get here early to nab one of them! read more
