Families looking for a low-cost way to fill the school holidays can head to Camden Valley Inn, where four days of free entertainment will bring superheroes, cartoon favourites, reptiles and farmyard animals to the venue across the September/October break.

The popular school holiday program returns with a line-up designed to give kids plenty to see and do, without parents having to pay for activities.

First up is a visit from the iconic Batmobile on Tuesday 29 September from 12pm to 2pm. Families can get a close-up look at the famous vehicle, take photos and enjoy a superhero-themed afternoon.

On Thursday 1 October from 12pm to 1pm, younger visitors can meet Bluey and Bingo, with the much-loved characters making a special appearance for their fans.

Wildlife takes centre stage on Tuesday 6 October from 12pm to 1pm, when a live reptile show will give children the opportunity to see some fascinating creatures up close and learn more about them.

The program finishes on Thursday 8 October from 12pm to 2pm with a petting zoo, where families can meet and interact with a range of furry farmyard animals.

Kayla Seeney, General Manager at Camden Valley Inn, said the free program was designed to help families enjoy the school holidays without adding to the cost of entertaining the kids.

“We know school holidays can quickly become expensive for families, so we wanted to create a program where parents can bring the kids along, enjoy some entertainment and make memories together without having to spend extra on activities,” Kayla said.

“From superheroes and beloved cartoon characters to reptiles and farmyard animals, there’s something to get every little one excited.”

All activities are free and no bookings are required, meaning families can simply turn up and enjoy the program.

Located less than an hour from Sydney CBD, Camden Valley Inn provides a countryside escape for families, with five acres of open space, a family bistro, pizzeria, beer garden and on-site playground.
