WHAT’S ON AT PARC THESE APRIL SCHOOL HOLIDAYS?
Come on down to PARC these school holidays. We have your fun family day sorted with our Aquatic Playground and green Constrictor waterslide. We will also have other exciting activities including face painting, balloon twisting and there may even be a visit from the Easter Bunny (shhhh, it’s a surprise)!  

Unfortunately, our famous Splashtown obstacle course is having a rest these school holidays, as we make repairs on some of the elements. We will be back with our full Splashy obstacle course for our Winter School Holiday program, in June.  

Our holiday program will run from Monday 11 April – Friday 22 April, excluding Public Holidays.  

See you in Centre for a splash!
