“Never went to a fenced park when I grew up. Granted I was taught about the dangers of certain thing like rivers and strangers. When I was too young to comprehend that sort of things my parents always had someone supervise me. It doesn't need a fence. Its a playground not a jail.”
– Chris Byrnes
“Unfortunately I think this playground has been and will continue to be a bottomless money pit.”
– Kim Drain

"Its alright to have an ideal of how things should be but the fact is all the security in the world is not going to stop idiots from vandalizing the playground at night. To say its ok to throw money at the problem is all well and good but its us the ratepayers who are paying for it.”

– Trev Smith
“OMG, it's not about community behaviour, it's about the safety of our children! I won't take my children there on my own anymore, it's not worth the risk.”

– Lillian Mood
“I don't take my kids to this park because it's unfenced.” – Ashleigh Lang
“Even a fence with gates along the road side, not to fence out people but to prevent little kids running out in front of a car! You will never stop the vandals and idiots who want to destroy things fence or no fence.”
– Ann Davies
