Ernest Johnson Oval Playground

South Perth locals know this oval playground is a solid pick for kids anywhere from toddlers through to tweens. The setup covers all the classics — slides, swings, a climbing structure, a merry-go-round, and a sandbox that younger kids will refuse to leave. Shade trees do a decent job of keeping things bearable on hot Perth days, and there’s parking right there so you’re not hauling the whole family from three streets away. The walking path around the oval means adults can actually move around while the kids burn off energy. A genuinely easy, low-stress outing for families in the area.
