Crichton Reserve

 Heidi and her husband have lived in Port Melbourne for 10 years and raised 4 boys .   Heidi says, “My favourite place in Port Melbourne would have to be Crichton Reserve. As we don’t have a back yard Crichton Park across the road became “Our Backyard”. Many of our neighbours use the park as their play area also and it has become a central area for us all and has sparked some wonderful friendships. We have often enjoyed a spontaneous and relaxing dinner and drink with our neighbours in the park. I have hosted Christmas and numerous kids’ parties in this park. My children have learnt to crawl, walk, climb and ride a bike in this park. The kids have the neighbourhood kids to play big games of cricket, soccer or footy and skills have been developed. There isn’t a day when my gate doesn’t get knocked on by one the neighbourhood kids wanting my kids to go to the park. This park has been the best asset to my family. 

This is a great place to live. We love the community feel and participation in the area. This is what makes Port Melbourne what it is.”
