The St Clair Skate Park is officially open and, according to locals and visitors who gave it a test run the minute the fences came down, it’s a welcome addition to the area.

Located in the St Clair Playspace Precinct, next door to St Clair Recreation Centre and The Brocas, the skate park features a mini Bondi bowl, flat bars, hips and ledges and fly out rails amongst other exciting additions for skateboards, bikes and scooters. The all ages area also features a basketball half court, a table tennis table, shelter and automated lighting and an all-accessible viewing area. There’s plenty of greenery too, with new plants, shade trees and irrigation. The Brocas, our youth community centre, will be hosting skating workshops over the coming weeks and during the school holidays.

The completion of the Skate Park is the final element in the St Clair Precinct Master Plan designed to make the precinct a destination point for residents and visitors alike. The area also includes a fantastic playspace for all ages and abilities, a BBQ areas and shelter, tennis courts, an upgrade to the playing fields, creating more flexible spaces, and a commemorative space which celebrates our heritage. A huge thank you to the project team involved.
