Kelly Tarlton’s introduces SpongeBob SquarePants

Kelly Tarlton’s introduces a new addition for the school holidays – SpongeBob SquarePants!

To celebrate the release of The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water, Kelly Tarlton’s SEALIFE Aquarium is transforming into SpongeBob’s underwater home town of Bikini Bottom for the April School Holidays.

Children will have the opportunity to splash around in the rockpools and interact with SpongeBob’s best friend Patrick Star the star fish. Meanwhile in the fish gallery see if the kids can spot Mrs Puff’s students swimming in the tanks.

With interactive SpongeBob-themed activities all around the aquarium and prizes to be won, the kids will have bucket loads of fun completing the quiz trail and testing their SpongeBob and sea life knowledge.

Be sure to check out the Sub-Antarctic penguin colony and see if you can spot an exciting new addition to Kelly Tarlton’s, the first King Penguin chick of the year! In addition there’s the new Shipwreck Shores Playground featuring a splash table, seacave crawl and hidden fish tanks, as well as the rescued turtles swimming in the tanks.

BREED, RESCUE and PROTECT are environmental and ethical values that Kelly Tarlton’s is proud to follow, with the King Penguin breeding program one of the most successful in the world.
