Halifax Parks and Recreation strives to enrich the lives of those who live, work, or visit HRM by providing inclusive, affordable and accessible recreation services, facilities and programs.
Adjacent to the Metro Transit Highfield Park Terminal, the Dartmouth North Community Centre, is a busy community gathering place. The playground on site is a great place for children to have fun while being supervised from the outdoor seating area.
Halifax is in Mi’kma’ki, the ancestral and unceded territory of the Mi’kmaq people. The people of the Mi’kmaw Nation have lived on this territory for millennia, and we acknowledge them as the past, present and future caretakers of this land. Historically, a land acknowledgment is a traditional practice shared amongst Indigenous groups to recognize the Indigenous land and territory they are visiting. Today a land acknowledgement remains a way to express one’s gratitude to the Indigenous people for being stewards of the land that we live and work on.
