After what seems like the looooooongest term in history, the school holidays are finally here!
With Easter smack bang in the middle of the break, there are a million things happening in Adelaide to make the most of a few hours, or even a few days with your friends and fam.
The Autumn weather means it’s the perfect time to soak up outdoor adventures with your little buddies — ideal for hitting up playgrounds, bike riding and trekking.
We’re just scratching the surface — of course there’s our faves, like Bounce, Pumpt, Latitude, Woodhouse, and Mega Adventure — but here are some other ways to get adventurous these school holidays.
Remember to check websites for full details… happy exploring!
