Monday, 5 May 2025 from 5:30 PM to 9:30 PM

Organiser: Justin Atkinson

Have a secret love for playgrounds you feel ashamed to admit? VUWTC is the place for you! A mainstay of walkies are our playground crawls, where we rank a suburb's playgrounds! Past instalments have included Seatoun, Newtown, Johnsonville, and Tawa.

This time we'll head to Berhampore, Kingston, Mornington and Vogeltown. Never heard of those places?! Great, that's where we're heading :)

We'll meet at Courtenay place, then catch the 1 bus to Berhampore. We'll walk up through the Vogeltown area and end at the Brooklyn shops. The 7 and 17 buses go back to Willis St/Lambton Quay every 15-25min.

NOTE: the map says 1hr 30min, but the walk will be 3-4 hours due to socialising, playground testing, and buses.

List of playgrounds:

- Te Papa Tākaro o Jim Belich (Jim Belich Playground)

- Jeypore Street Play Area

- Farnham Street Play Area

- Quebec Street Play Area

- Vogelmorn Park Play Area

- Krull Street Play Area

- Harrison Street Play Area

- Mitchell Street Play Area? (bonus, an extra 25min walk from Brooklyn shops, 17 bus goes from here)

 

TBD
