Wellington Square Park and Playground (Moort-ak Waadiny)
Located in East Perth, Wellington Square Park and Playground, also known as Moort-ak Waadiny, is a vibrant hub where residents, visitors, families, and friends come together to meet, explore, and celebrate.
The park features an expansive 3,000-square-metre intergenerational playground called Koolangka Koolangka Waabiny—one of the largest in Greater Perth. This nature-inspired play area includes a skate park, parkour zones, flying fox, embankment slides, pump track, water play, climbing towers, and basketball courts. The playground's "Landscape of Play" design is influenced by Aboriginal themes and iconic Western Australian landforms.
Wellington Square also provides event spaces for medium to large gatherings and multi-use sporting fields developed in partnership with local schools and clubs. With 350 trees offering 60% canopy cover, the park delivers plenty of shade, greenery, and relaxation spots.
Visitors can find a place of reflection commemorating the Stolen Generations in the park's northwest corner, as well as an off-leash dog area, footpaths, and shaded picnic areas. New lighting and CCTV help ensure safety, especially in the evenings.
Whether you're seeking adventure, quiet reflection, or community connection, Wellington Square offers a welcoming and safe environment for all.
