Bushland and Cabbage Tree Palms at Weetawaa Road Reserve
Weetawaa Road Reserve is mostly natural bushland growing as Hawkesbury Sandstone open forest, with Sydney Peppermint as the dominant tree. The reserve protects a small stand of Cabbage Tree Palms, a species that is rare in Pittwater and gives the bushland its most distinctive feature. Pockets of bushland sit alongside the lawn areas, so the native canopy continues through the reserve from the school boundary toward the Plateau Road frontage.
Lawn Village Green at Weetawaa Road Reserve
A large lawn at Weetawaa Road Reserve works as a village green and serves as a field for Bilgola Plateau Primary School and the local community. Native trees are planted across the lawn areas, which gives the open grass shade and ties it visually to the surrounding bushland. The lawn is the most open part of Weetawaa Road Reserve, making it the main gathering space for the school and neighbourhood.
