The Blenheim Road Reserve community park officially opened on Sunday 11 December 2022 with a community celebration.

The park, located next to the Australian Islamic Centre and Altona Miniature Railway in Newport West, is perfect for get-togethers and catch ups with two picnic areas, barbecue facilities, a unisex toilet facility and play equipment.  

It’s also a place for quiet reflection with a purpose-built meditation space, water features and forest walk.  

The park showcases native trees, shrubs and groundcovers and celebrates biodiversity with a balance between grass areas and planting.  

The key features of the reserve include: 

  • Entry plaza with rain garden plantings and trees; 
  • Two picnic areas – one with a sheltered barbecue and picnic seating, the other with platform benches in a grassed area; 
  • Sand pit with swing, diggers and sand wheel; 
  • Climbing tower with climbing walls, two slides and a viewing platform; 
  • Forest walk along a tree-lined avenue with bird sculptures; 
  • Meditation space with timber deck and platform seats with plantings; and 
  • Unisex toilet facility.
