Banks

Banks, in the district of Tuggeranong, is the most southerly suburb of Canberra. The suburb is named after Sir Joseph Banks, the botanist who accompanied Captain James Cook to the Pacific Ocean whereby he entered Botany Bay in 1770.  To follow suit, the theme of the street names is botany or natural history.

The Rob Roy Nature Park is a hilly region to the east of Banks. The suburb itself slopes gently to the west North West. Located in the suburb are Beau & Jessi Park and the Banks Oval.

There is a small shopping centre in the suburb on the main internal road, Pockett Avenue.
