The Bushland Cemetery was officially opened on Tuesday 16 September 2003. This cemetery over time will be developed and nurtured into a Cemetery that is both in keeping with the preservation of the bushland and a place of reflection. It offers a peaceful setting amongst natural bushland and many wildlife habitats. There are kangaroo families in this area, birds and other wildlife. The echoing sounds of kookaburras can be heard from many of the trees that have been retained.
Council has imposed some conditions on this area in order to retain this natural Bushland area, and keep it as eco-friendly as possible. Ashes must be either scattered directly into the ground or placed in a calico bag. No artificial flowers of any type are permitted.
A single or double position is available. A choice of two different type of rocks are available: Mossy Rock or Granite. Both rocks include their own type of plaque, especially chosen for the Bushland setting.
