History

In 1985, Centenary Playground was opened to celebrate Council’s 100thanniversary of incorporation. The park is designed to provide open space for passive recreation and a children’s playground. The land was purchased from the Strathfield-Homebush Parish of the Uniting Church (later known as the West Sydney Chinese Church) and was a former tennis court.(Reference: Jones, C,Parks, Reserves & Memorials of Strathfield,2004).
