Niipu-niipu Wama/Morton Park and Morton Road Sports and Community Hub

This park was formally named on 19 October 2021 following community consultation.  The Aboriginal name ‘Niipu-niipu Wama’ means ‘friendship park’ in the Kaurna language, and this came from a community suggestion.

This park includes both junior and youth play spaces.
