Exciting spotting in our Park!

Today we spotted Australia’s very own 2025 Bird of the Year, a Tawny Frogmouth under the wisteria vines at our Jubilee Complex! 🐦✨

With their big eyes, downturned beak, and perpetually surprised expression, it’s no wonder they’ve been voted Australia’s favourite bird.

This one wasn’t fussed by the attention, but it certainly didn’t mind posing for the camera!

Keep your eyes peeled next time you visit, you never know what wildlife you’ll find!

Christmas is a special time for connecting and cherishing moments with loved ones. It's also a time to reflect on the lives of those who are now at rest.

Our Carols in the Park event will be a heartfelt and safe environment to welcome the Christmas season while staying close to loved ones who have passed.

We welcome you to hang a message of remembrance or share a memory on our Christmas Tribute Wall.

The wall will be available on Friday 12 December at our Carols in the Park event and in the Jubilee Complex Foyer for the remainder of December.
