The Kids Are Alright


Success at last for kids needing a new skate park! Now relocated to Empire Park opposite Bar Beach its not as accessible by public transport as the one at Newcastle Beach but design-wise its a hit with stunt bikes, skaters and learners alike. Newcastle Council got it right on this one in terms of popularity among users and free street ballet for spectators. What next for our town's budget priorities - better public facilities for the age-impaired and those with disabilities perhaps?
