George Welby Park Playground

If you’ve got a toddler and a dog, this one’s worth knowing about. The enclosed play area means you’re not constantly chasing kids toward the street, and the shade sails actually do their job on a hot Perth afternoon. Pack some snacks and use the BBQ — there’s plenty of seating around, so you’re not eating standing up like a weirdo. The basketball court keeps older kids or mates busy while the little ones do their thing, and the open grass field gives everyone room to breathe. Bateman locals use this place regularly for a reason.
