Re the article "Family fun centre to close: Sky Zone decision shocks patrons" (Leader, October 16).
So disappointing, there is limited inside play areas for teenage kids, now this is going. I take my daughter here every fortnight for exercise! Shame on you Westfield.
Susan White
Such a shame, only great experiences here. Fantastic staff.

My girls are going to be devastated! They said they will look to reopen in Miranda. I reckon they will find prime warehouse space and transform it into a brilliant entertainment hub. Makes business sense. A 40sqm space in Westfield is $200k a year to rent out. I can't begin to imagine how much their rental would be in such a prime location.

So disappointed. Such a good place for kids to get out have fun and get some exercise while they are at it.
Kendra Davis
Very disappointing. Sky Zone is a great place for all ages.
Undine Dwyer
Wow ! Such a disappointment. My family will certainly miss it. We are so limited in the shire when it comes to activities for the kids. Especially indoors. The place would be ideal for an ice skating rink though?
Vanessa Dadley
If you lease in Westfield you have very stringent conditions you must abide by, rent increases, refurbishment, if you are not considered profitable enough they coerce you to move. Westfield is not a good landlord.
Diane Brooks
Many hours of enjoyment with the different groups of young people with disabilities.
Kathy Affara
Wow. Fancy the Westfield Group making the rent so high, that a business can't operate.
Peter Adshead
How disappointing! My daughter absolutely loves this place. Now we'll have to drive all the way to Alexandria!

Not many places for kids to be entertained in the shire- such a shame. I think the council need to pull their finger out and at least build a decent size park with some water activities if they keep building apartments. The shire is lacking activities for kids.
Janette Collins
Such a shame. Can they replace it with a much needed indoor skatepark? Coz that would be rad and very well used!
Virginia Maddock
This is such a shame. My kids love Sky Zone - we frequently go there. Westfield talk about having shopping centres with entertainment to draw crowds (to combat the rise of online shopping) yet they are clearly not supporting entertainment like Sky Zone.

It is very sad my daughter was going to have her birthday there in March she is so upset about it.

Of course it's all about Westfield increasing the rent!!! It happens over and over in all of their establishments. Why do we think that it's the same chain stores in every Westfield? Only ones who can pay the rent. Or large OS stores with heavy backing.
Lynda Wilkinson
So Westfield have lost Italian Kitchen (space still empty) Mejico (space still empty) Braza and now Sky Zone. When will they learn about their rents and fees.
Charlotte Copeland
This is such a shame because it provided an activity for both boys and girls. Not only that it was affordable for Teens.
