"It would be easy to not know that Don Moore Reserve exists. It is tucked behind North Rocks Public School, next to the Muirfield Golf Club. Even once you drive in and park at the on-site car park, you may miss the fenced playground tucked behind the amenities block.

"The playground is small, with a synthetic grass ground, and perfect for toddlers and preschoolers. Within the shaded, fenced area, there is the following play equipment:

* Train rocker
* Surf/skate board balancer
* Two swings, one with a toddler seat
* Climbing play gym, with slide, climbing walls and bridge
* Vertical, chain stepping poles
* Car front with two steering wheels"

Just outside the fenced playground are toilets. Within sight of the playground, there are a number of picnic shelters and a dual BBQ. Plus there are two lots of netball courts that are great for riding bikes and scooters on.

Access: Don Moore Reserve is near North Rocks Shopping Centre and accessed by car from Barclay Road. There is an on-site car park. Buses travel along both North Rocks and Barclay Roads.
