History
Dinosaur World was a four hectare Fun Park situated amongst natural bushland and offers 18 life-size dinosaur models, native wildlife, a barbecue area, extensive playground including trampolines, swings and slides and a natural history museum.
It was open every day except Wednesdays and Christmas Day from 10am to 5pm. It was open every day during the school holidays, and admission cost $5.50 per person.[1]
The park operated for 20 years before its most recent owner, Keah Otto, was forced to close its doors in 2002. She cited many issues for its closure, including the cost of insurance and Work Cover.[2]
