Coronation Reserve Playground

Tucked into one of Strathfield South’s quieter streets, this little reserve is exactly the kind of spot locals stumble onto and keep coming back to. The shade trees do a decent job of keeping things cool, which makes a real difference on a hot Sydney afternoon. Nothing fancy here — just solid swings and slides that get the job done for kids of pretty much any age. If you’re after somewhere calm to let the little ones burn some energy without the chaos of a bigger park, this one’s worth knowing about.
