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!

Have you heard of Incidental Exercise? 🧹🚶‍♀️

Incidental exercise is physical activity that occurs naturally as part of your daily routine! It’s the small bursts of activity you accumulate throughout the day, such as carrying in the groceries, or playing with the kids, that helps you achieve your 30-20-2. 

Some examples of Incidental Exercise are: 
- Doing housework like vacuuming, mopping, or gardening
- Walking up stairs instead of taking elevator or escalator 
- Parking further away from your destination to get your steps up
- Walking during lunch breaks, or having a standing meeting

Remember, all movement counts! 🌟

For more information about 30-20-2, or helpful resources and workouts to get you moving, head to our Digital Hub.
How cute it this?! 🦄

Our Cafe team always know how to add a little magic into your day! ✨

Help us ensure PARC is a safe venue for the whole community to enjoy 🏊

At PARC, we participate in the statewide Watch Around Water program. Watch Around Water is an education and public awareness-raising program that defines the minimum supervision requirements for children in a pool setting. 

When visiting PARC, your child will be given a coloured wristband, based on their age. These wristbands help our lifeguards identify the level of supervison required for your child, and support a safe aquatic environment for everyone. 

Learn more about the Watch Around Water program, via the link in our bio.
