The Ellen Grove parks precinct project remains in the planning phase, with a final concept plan guiding future upgrades at Ellen Grove District Park and Waterford Road Park in Ellen Grove.

From Early Feedback To A Defined Plan

Planning for the Ellen Grove parks precinct began with community engagement between May and June 2023, allowing residents and stakeholders to share input on future park use.

A draft concept plan was later released in November 2024, followed by further consultation before the final concept plan was completed by late 2025.

What Is Planned For Ellen Grove

The concept plan outlines a range of recreation and community features designed to meet the needs of a growing population.

Proposed inclusions feature open space, shelters, picnic tables and a playground, alongside tennis courts and other recreation areas. A clubhouse is also planned, with facilities including a kiosk, pro shop, bathroom and meeting spaces.

Balancing Use With Natural Surroundings

The project aims to support both recreation and environmental outcomes across the precinct.

Planning documents indicate that natural environmental values within the parklands will be protected and enhanced, ensuring green space is maintained while new facilities are introduced.

Community Input Shapes The Outcome

Feedback collected during the 2023 engagement period contributed to the overall design direction of the project.

Input from residents helped shape the mix of recreation spaces and family-friendly facilities included in the concept plan.

Timeline Points To Long-Term Delivery

The project remains listed as planned, with detailed design scheduled to begin in 2026.

Works are expected to commence in 2028, although timing remains subject to weather and future funding. Some project updates have referenced the 2027–28 financial year, but current planning outlines 2028 as the anticipated start for construction.

What Happens Next For Ellen Grove

Greenways Esplanade Park in Parkinson to Receive BMX Track Upgrade

Families who regularly visit Greenways Esplanade Park in Parkinson will soon have another reason to head outdoors, with the park’s well-used BMX track set for an upgrade.

The improvement was announced by Cr Adrian Schrinner, who said the BMX track, a fixture of many local weekends, would be refreshed alongside the installation of a brand new climbing net. More details about the project are expected to be released soon.

“Parks like this where kids learn to ride, families spend their Saturdays and neighbours run into each other. Getting them right matters,” Cr Schrinner shared in a social media post.

While the full scope of works has not yet been released, the announcement confirms further improvements are planned for Greenways Esplanade Park. The planned works will add to facilities already popular with families and young riders.

The BMX track provides a dedicated place where children can practise riding in a recreational setting. The upgrade will also include a brand new climbing net, adding another feature for visitors to enjoy.

Greenways Esplanade Park offers recreation facilities for a range of age groups in one location. Younger children have access to playground equipment, while older children and teenagers can make use of the BMX track, basketball court, cricket nets and other recreation spaces within the park.

Beyond organised sport and play, the park also offers open grassy areas where residents gather for picnics and time outdoors. Shared pathways throughout the park encourage walking, cycling and other casual recreation.

About Greenways Esplanade Park

Located on Greenways Esplanade in Parkinson, the park is recognised as one of Brisbane’s family-friendly outdoor destinations. The park is among the city’s parks featuring paths designed for young children, with concrete riding tracks where children can enjoy bikes and scooters alongside playgrounds and open green space.

The park includes two playgrounds with shade sails, featuring swings, slides and climbing equipment suitable for a range of ages. A large climbing net is already one of its well-known play features, with a brand new climbing net also announced as part of the upcoming works.

Other facilities include a fenced basketball court, rebound wall, cricket nets, a concrete table tennis table, outdoor fitness equipment and expansive grassy areas for informal recreation.

Its relatively flat layout makes it suitable for prams, scooters and young riders, while the network of paths provides space for children to practise riding in a dedicated recreational setting.

Although Brisbane City has not yet released a construction timeline or detailed design plans for the BMX track upgrade, further information is expected to be released soon. Once completed, the improvements will refresh facilities that have made Greenways Esplanade Park a popular destination for local families and visitors looking to enjoy the outdoors.

New Life for Local Parks in Durack and Doolandella

A visit to two local parks in Brisbane’s south-west now reveals more than just open green space. Residents arriving at Durack Common and Grove Street Park will find a range of new additions designed to make these community spaces more welcoming, active and enjoyable for everyone.

At Durack Common on Durella Street, the most noticeable change is the installation of brand-new outdoor gym equipment. Positioned within the park’s open surroundings, the fitness stations provide an opportunity for residents to exercise in the fresh air, whether they are beginning a fitness journey, maintaining an active lifestyle or simply looking for a different way to enjoy the outdoors.

Not far away in Doolandella, Grove Street Park has also undergone a transformation. Families and visitors can now make use of a new picnic shelter and table, creating a comfortable place to gather, relax and enjoy the park.

A new pedestrian gate entrance, complete with a top-pull latch, has improved access, while a connecting pathway links visitors directly from the main footpath to the new shelter.

The improvements do not stop there. An upgraded water tap, along with fresh turf and landscaping works, has helped refresh the park’s appearance and functionality, creating a more inviting environment for regular visitors and newcomers alike.

Together, these upgrades reflect an ongoing commitment to enhancing local recreational spaces and ensuring neighbourhood parks remain valued community hubs.

As communities continue to grow, these enhancements serve as a reminder of the important role public green spaces play in bringing people together, supporting healthy lifestyles and creating places where neighbours can connect and enjoy the outdoors.

A Field of Dreams: The Rise of Gaelic Park at Willawong

The first sound that hits you at Gaelic Park in Willawong on a Sunday morning isn’t the whistle or the clash of hurleys. It’s the voices—Irish, Australian, and somewhere in between—rising together under the Queensland sun. The smell of cut grass mixes with coffee and sunscreen. A cheer goes up from the sideline, and for a few hours, it feels as though a small corner of Brisbane has become part of Ireland itself.

Built by Volunteers, Fueled by Community

Developed by volunteers from Brisbane’s Irish community, Gaelic Park is more than a sports ground. It’s the living heart of Brisbane’s Irish culture—a place where heritage, sport, and belonging meet on one patch of green. The field itself is modest, bordered by gum trees and a low clubhouse, but for those who gather here each season, it’s sacred turf.

When the Queensland Gaelic Football and Hurling Association (QGFHA) was formed and affiliated in 1975, Gaelic games were still a small, homesick pursuit far from Irish soil. Most players were new Irish arrivals looking for a taste of home.

Matches were played wherever space could be found at places like Nudgee and Iona College, before the idea of a permanent ground at Willawong became real. That dream took shape in the early 1980s, and through years of volunteer labour and community fundraising, Gaelic Park was born.

Today, it’s a thriving hub where community and competition coexist. The clubhouse hums with Irish accents—and increasingly, with voices from all over Australia. Festival days at Gaelic Park often combine live music, barbecues, and family fundraising events.

Children learn to swing hurleys alongside their parents, while older members watch proudly from the benches, swapping stories about “the old days” and how this soil feels almost like the sod back home.

Australasia’s Irish Games Come to Brisbane

The growth of Gaelic games in Queensland has mirrored the evolution of the Irish community itself. The 2025 Australasian Gaelic Games Championships, held at the Gaelic Park in October last year, marked a milestone.

Over 400 players from across Australia and New Zealand descended on Willawong for three days of fierce competition. Victoria took the hurling crown after a dramatic final against Western Australia, while state teams from New South Wales (Sydney), Western Australia, Auckland, South Australia, Queensland, and others battled for honours across football, hurling, and camogie.

Hosting the Championships reinforced Gaelic Park’s reputation as a key venue for Irish sport in Australasia. It also showed how far the games have travelled. Once a niche pastime for homesick expats, Gaelic sports now include many Australian-born players drawn to the speed, skill, and camaraderie.

South Australian player Siena Covino, a former NPL soccer athlete who now lines out in women’s Gaelic football, was named best on ground in the women’s intermediate final—one of many examples of local-born athletes embracing the code. For players like her, Gaelic football has become a weekly highlight—something that feels freer and more communal than the sports they grew up with.

A Global Network Rooted in One Field

Gaelic Park is part of an international GAA network that links local communities back to Croke Park in Dublin, the symbolic home of the association. When matches in Brisbane are live-streamed, family and friends in Ireland can tune in. Teams share footage and occasionally exchange players between hemispheres. The games have become more than sport—they’re a living bridge across oceans.

Yet, for all its global connections, Gaelic Park remains deeply local. Willawong is an industrial suburb on Brisbane’s fringe, but the Park brings a splash of colour and life to the area. Locals from neighbouring communities often wander in out of curiosity and leave with a newfound appreciation for this centuries-old Irish pastime. Many of today’s players, including kids who have no Irish background, are picking up hurleys for the first time.

For the QGFHA, the focus is on sustaining that growth—through strong youth programs and deeper ties with the wider community. Events like the annual Irish festival family day hint at the Park’s potential as a year-round hub for sport, music, dance, and storytelling.

Gaelic Park isn’t just about holding onto the past. It’s about shaping a future where identity, belonging, and joy all share the same field.

Calamvale Home Draws Fierce Bidding War Before Selling For $1.85-M

A luxury family home in Calamvale attracted fierce competition at auction, with eight registered bidders driving the sale price to $1.85 million after a fast-paced bidding contest that drew a crowd of more than 50 people.

The property at 29 Aster Place, Calamvale, opened with a bid of $1.5 million before climbing another $350,000 through 20 bids. As the auction progressed, the contest narrowed to two determined families who continued bidding in $10,000 increments before one secured the property.

According to Place Forest Lake, the home was promoted through an extensive marketing campaign before auction day, including social media advertising and follow-up with prospective buyers and local neighbours. The agency said the campaign helped attract strong interest ahead of the auction.

Selling agent Stephanie Tran said the vendors had received three offers before auction day, each around the $1.65 million mark, but taking the property to auction ultimately produced a stronger outcome.

Auctioneer Glenn Bool said the bidding became a contest between two buyers once the price reached $1.8 million. He said keeping both parties engaged throughout the final stages of the auction helped the sale exceed the pre-auction offers that had been received.

Stephanie Tran said the result was encouraging given changing buyer sentiment in recent months. She said buyers had become more cautious following the Federal Budget, but well-presented homes in desirable locations could still attract strong competition when marketed effectively and offered at auction.

Built in 2010, the double-storey residence features secure electronic gated entry, multiple living areas, premium ducted air conditioning and a substantial solar power system. The home is also located close to schools, shops and public transport.

The result highlights the level of competition that can still emerge when multiple buyers pursue the same property. Despite the cautious sentiment described by the selling agent, the auction format produced a sale price well above both the opening bid and the pre-auction offers received by the vendors.

The Calamvale sale adds to a series of competitive auctions across Brisbane where sought-after family homes continue to attract multiple bidders. In this case, competition between buyers proved decisive, with the final sale price exceeding the vendors’ earlier offers by around $200,000.

Pet Portraits from Forest Lake Win Big in London Photography Awards

A local pet photographer from Forest Lake has achieved international fame, securing seven gold awards and three honourable mentions at the London Photography Awards for her skill in capturing the unique character of pets.

London Photography Awards — *Photo Credit:* *Julie Brown/ Instagram*

The achievement occurred recently, marking the first time the Forest Lake studio has entered this prestigious global competition. Julie Brown, who leads the photography sessions at the local studio, began her career with no professional experience just four years ago. She honed her craft under the guidance of studio founder Anne Neiwand, who expanded her own landscape photography background to include a dedicated focus on animals.

The recognition from the London-based panel serves as a major milestone for the small business. The awards program is designed to highlight exceptional talent in the photography industry across the world, specifically looking for artists who demonstrate creativity in their work.

One of the most successful entries for the studio was a portrait of a food-motivated dachshund named Gnocchi, which captured the dog’s intense focus and was titled “Anticipation.”

The process behind the images involves much more than just a camera. Brown credits much of the success to a collaborative effort within the team. Her husband, Michael, plays an essential role as a wrangler during the sessions. He works to help animals feel at ease, particularly those that arrive feeling nervous or shy.

According to the team, many pets that are initially hesitant around men quickly grow to trust Michael, often becoming quite attached to him by the end of the session.

For Brown, the most rewarding aspect of the work is the emotional connection formed with the animals and their owners. She finds joy in observing the transition of timid pets into confident subjects who are happy to engage and play. The positive feedback from the local community remains a primary motivator, with the studio maintaining a strong reputation among pet owners in the region. The team intends to continue participating in the international awards circuit in the future to keep pushing their creative boundaries.

Knife Seen as Group Targets Waratah Street Home in Pallara

A Pallara attempted break-in was captured on a home security camera as three masked people, including one carrying a knife, tried to kick down the front door of a Waratah Street home while a family was inside.

Camera Records Early-Morning Attempt

The incident occurred at about 5:10 am on 27 June while the occupants were asleep. Footage from the front entrance showed three people approaching in balaclavas, hooded clothing and gloves.

One person in a black jumper appeared to notice the camera and tried to cover it before kicking the door four times. Another person, wearing a blue jumper and gloves, was filmed holding a knife while also trying to force the door open.

The group did not enter the house. The homeowner said a fourth person was waiting nearby in an older-model black Suzuki Swift.

After the occupants switched on the lights and the homeowner shouted through a window, the three people returned to the vehicle and left.

Family Calls Triple Zero

The homeowner was inside with his pregnant partner and their four-year-old son when the banging began. He called Triple Zero while the attempted entry was unfolding and reported that weapons were involved.

He said the operator transferred the call to Policelink after the group had driven away. The homeowner reported being asked further questions about details he had already given before being advised that an SMS link would be sent so he could complete a form.

He ended the call after receiving that advice.

The homeowner later criticised the response as inadequate. He claimed no patrol car attended the property and said a forensic police officer was the first officer to arrive several hours after the attempted break-in.

He also said the noise woke his son, who became distressed during the incident.

Queensland Police Service confirmed it had received a report concerning an attempted break and enter at the Waratah Street property and was investigating.

The security footage was later shared in a local community group. In a response to the post, police encouraged anyone with relevant footage or information to contact Policelink on 131 444 or submit a report online.

Dutch Club Brisbane Plans New Chapter with Richlands Land Subdivision

The Dutch Club Brisbane is preparing for a new chapter after members voted to move forward with plans to subdivide part of the organisation’s property at 123 Pine Road, Richlands, paving the way for a new clubhouse while remaining at its long-time home.

Read: Lions Richlands Seeks Approval for Club Extension at Pine Road

Members of the Netherlands Association of Queensland Inc, known locally as the Dutch Club Brisbane, endorsed the proposal at an extraordinary general meeting. Under the plan, part of the approximately 6,200-square-metre site would be sold to Queensland Lions Football Club, while the Dutch Club would retain the remaining land for the construction of modern facilities.

In a Facebook post announcing the decision, the club said: “Our aim is to honour the history of the Dutch Club while planning responsibly for the future, preserving Dutch culture, friendship and community connection for future generations.”

The club will continue operating from its existing Pine Road premises while the project progresses through legal, planning, subdivision, development and building approval processes. According to the club, the project is expected to take about 12 months to two years, subject to the necessary approvals and professional advice.

The proposal marks the latest chapter for a community organisation that has called Richlands home for more than 40 years. While the facilities are set to change, the club says its focus remains on preserving Dutch culture, friendship and community connection while continuing its social and cultural activities.

The redevelopment is intended to help the club preserve Dutch culture, friendship and community connection for future generations through updated facilities.

Preserving a Richlands legacy

The Dutch Club has operated from Pine Road since December 1984 after relocating from earlier venues in Brisbane, Milton and Sherwood. The proposal would allow the organisation to remain in Richlands while modernising its facilities.

The proposal also has historical links with Queensland Lions Football Club, which was founded by Dutch migrants in 1957 as Hollandia. The football club has a long association with Pine Road and later became part of the history that led to the formation of Brisbane Roar.

The Dutch Club said discussions about the future of the site had taken place over many years before members approved the current proposal.

If approved, the redevelopment would see the club replace its existing facilities while remaining at the Pine Road site.

About the Dutch Club Brisbane

The Dutch Club Brisbane traces its origins to 1952, when Dutch residents gathered at St Francis Hall in Brisbane to establish a social and cultural organisation for the growing Dutch community.

Since then, the club has promoted Dutch traditions, language, food and culture while welcoming members, families and visitors to experience the spirit of gezelligheid, a Dutch word that describes warmth, togetherness and a sense of belonging.

Read: Exploring Dutch Paradise at Dutch Club Brisbane NAQ

Over the decades, the organisation has occupied several locations before establishing its current clubhouse on Pine Road in December 1984. Throughout that time, it has hosted cultural celebrations, social gatherings and community events that celebrate Dutch heritage.

The planned redevelopment aims to ensure the Dutch Club can continue that role for many years to come while remaining part of the Richlands community.
