The Trust

"Centennial Park is of singular recreational, historical, educational, cultural and environmental significance to the people of New South Wales. The area is no ordinary park and, therefore, like the Royal Botanic Gardens and Domain, should be the subject of specific legislation to ensure that it is protected for the enjoyment of future generations of this great State and, indeed, any person visiting it."

- Hon. Neville Warn AC QC, Premier of NSW, 1976-1986 on the occasion of the establishment of the Centennial Park Trust (later re-named the Centennial Park and Moore Park Trust).
