Rocket Slide Memories - Real Mum story on MoM

5 Comments

When I was a little girl, my favourite place in the whole world was Cenntenial Park in Sydney. Every time I visited my Dad, I would check his bread bin. If the bread was mouldy, then he would take me to Cenntential Park to feed the ducks. Then, I would get to play on the green and red Rocket Ship. Last night I saw a TV show restoring an old Rocket Ship slide and thought of my days playing in the park. I ‘googled’ to see if it’s still there, so I could take my kids some day. Sadly, the Rocket Ship is no longer there. Then I found out that it’s just been moved tear Waverley Oval on Bondi Road. A chance to make new memories with my kids!

Dies anyone else remember playing on the Rocket Ship before it was moved in the late 80’s?

Not me. Was it an old metal one that burnt your bum in summer? I remember them!

I grew up in Bexley, and each year we had a family picnic in Centennial Park – I loved the Rocket!!!
