New features within Bob Gamble Park (River Heart Parklands - Stage 2) include:
- zero-depth water park
- extensive play equipment, including a spider web style climbing frame

- football field-sized 'Discovery Forest' incorporating features like forts, a bridge across a dry creek bed, carved wooden totems and balance beams.
