As the name implies, The Green Oval in Pasir Ris is designed based on an oval shape. It is a neighbourhood park that serves the community of flats in the northeastern corner of Pasir Ris.
The Green Oval in Pasir Ris
Located within the area bounded by Pasir Ris Drive 3, Drive 12, Street 72 and Drive 10, The Green Oval was opened in September 1996 by Mr Abdullah Tarmugi, the then-Minister for Community Development.

Other amenities in the middle of The Green Oval include seating areas, foot reflexology paths as well as fitness areas.
The Green Oval Playgrounds
If you are wondering where are the playgrounds at The Green Oval, there are more than one.
Instead of having a central large playground, the play areas at The Green Oval are de-centralised. In fact, there are four play areas set around the park.
The Green Oval playgrounds can be found at the fringe of the park, by the apartment blocks.
The first one, an orange and yellow playground for older kids, can be found close to Block 706.
Close to this first playground at The Green Oval is another play area that features a set of swings.
Over at Block 720, there is another playground where kids can have some fun.
The last of The Green Oval’s playground can be found in front of Block 711. This is our favourite amongst the various playgrounds in the park.
The green and purple playground features climbing nets along with various other play structures.
Best of all, it is set up under the shade of mature trees to provide some shelter from the sun.
The Green Oval, Pasir Ris
The Green Oval, like other parks in Pasir Ris such as Seashell Park, provides a green space for residents living in the neighbourhood to enjoy.
