Playgrounds

There's nothing more exciting as a youngster than the discovery of a new playground yet to be explored.

At The Lakes we understand the value that comes from creating a family-friendly environment, hence our focus on having playgrounds up and operational as soon as possible as each new stage is opened.

 

 

The Lakes Water Playground

The newest playground to The Lakes subdivision is a super exciting water playground on Pakanga Grove (up the Pyes Pa end of The Lakes).

This area hasn't quite made it to Google maps yet so we have included some basic instructions below on how to get there:

• Go to the top of Lakes Boulevard and turn right on to Te Ranga Memorial Drive.
• Continue down the hill and turn left on to Pakanga Grove
• Follow the road along and you'll see it on your left - you can't miss it.

 

The locations of playgrounds at The Lakes are:

• Ngawhetu Reserve (on Caldera Crescent)
• Ngakumama Reserve (on Landing Drive)
• Matatu Reserve (near the corner of Lakes Boulevard & Lakesview Quay)
• Caslani Lane (opposite the Lakes shopping centre)
• Tekaumarua Reserve (on Mortlake Heights)
• Orangapani Reserve (near Rochfort Crescent)
• Penetaka Heights (at the end of Materawaho Way)
• Penetaka Reserve
• Matepu Park (on Matepu Crescent)
