Quakers Hill and Lalor Park residents are enjoying the
chance to slide, climb and swing with their new and improved parks.
George Alder Reserve, Quakers Hill, and Thomas Kelly Reserve, Lalor Park, each received a $120,000 upgrade. Federal Member for Greenway, Michelle Rowland helped complete the package with $7,000 for each park through the Stronger Communities Grant Program.

Blacktown City Mayor Stephen Bali MP said the playgrounds are vital for our community.
“The playgrounds contribute to the positive lifestyle of a community and are valuable spaces for children to learn and play.”
Ms Rowland said: “It’s wonderful to see these local upgrades providing great community spaces for families.”
Council’s Access Advisory Committee played a role in ensuring the Thomas Kelly playground was accessible for all.
