Popondetta Park, located in Emerton, was given a significant upgrade in 2024, transforming it into a top-notch recreational reserve that caters to children of all ages and abilities. It was especially welcomed by parents of multi-aged kids, given its dual nature - while the young kids are on the playground, older ones or even the adults can head to the fields or courts nearby.
