Under the Sea – September School Holidays

Under the Sea at PARC  

Each weekday during the school holidays, kids and families can head ‘under the sea’ at PARC to explore the ocean and different sea creatures. 

Free activities will include pool games, face painting, balloon art and a colouring competition – with a chance to win a VIP Melbourne Aquarium prize pack. 

The whole family can also enjoy PARC’s popular inflatable obstacle course, Splashtown as well as the 114m Constrictor raft slide, the Python family raft ride, the award winning AquaPlay aquatic playground and main pool. 

“A day out at PARC provides hours of entertainment for the whole family. Kids love challenging themselves on the Splashtown obstacles and we see parents, grandparents and children alike having a heap of fun on our water slides and the playground,” said PARC CEO Tim Gledhill.  

“We know parents and carers are looking for activities to keep their kids active and entertained during the school holidays – so on top of our regular activities, we’re adding a great range of ‘under the sea’ themed activites to keep the kids occupied and interested.” 

“It is the ultimate family day out – it’s fun, it’s affordable and it’s local,” said Tim.
 

The PARC Holiday Program will run 11am–3pm weekdays from Monday 23 September to Friday 4 October (excluding Friday 27 September, AFL Grand Final public holiday). 

Bookings are recommended for the Splashtown obstacle course and will open Monday 16 September, CLICK HERE

A PARC day pass for the whole family starts at $26.70. Individual passes start at $7.40 for children, $9.30 for adults and $7.40 for concession.
