Plus we love to incorporate the environment in which we PLAY. And at the Wollongong Botanic Garden that is a whole lot of extra fun. Swing in the tree, collect seeds for the mud kitchen, roll down the hill or harness the wind. This is a place for kids to just be kids and to PLAY. outside the box, get creative, follow their curiosity, experiment, explore, make a mess, laugh, and have so much fun! At Junkyard Rascals we say, it's play the old skool way.

  • We support PLAY in our sessions using a Playwork approach, with minimal intervention. Child-directed PLAY is our goal.
  • There is no set activities at the junk playground, just PLAY glorious PLAY. How it unfolds is up to the kids. The only limit is their imagination.
  • We encourage adults to step-back and let the PLAY unfold as naturally as possible.
