We have an action-packed afternoon planned, with free children’s activities, sausage sizzle, DJ, health and fitness demonstrations and so much more!

Changed traffic/parking conditions

Due to this special event, there will be limited parking available in our main carpark between 6am – 6pm on Sunday 11 February. To help alleviate pressures of finding a car park, Chisholm Institute have kindly allocated car parking space for PARC members on this day. Please refer to the orange zones on the below map for alternative parking:
For those attending group exercise classes and swim lessons, please make sure you plan ahead and leave a little earlier to ensure you can find a park. Due to this disruption we will be opening our group entrance on the carpark side of the building for all members. Simply present your member band to the staff upon entry. We hope to see you here and want to thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.
