The Dunmoochin Foundation is surrounded by natural Australian bushland. Our policy in the unlikely event of a bushfire is for all residents to leave as soon as possible, with residents responsible to monitor conditions on days of high fire danger. There is a physical booklet located in each residence with the following fire services information, in addition to maps of the foundation properties.
