Dilli Village now has new managers with Leesa Downey and David Mierocha on site. Leesa and David are experienced camp managers having managed the campsite at Noosa North Shore.

USC manages the K’gari Research and Learning Centre (Fraser Island) at Dilli Village. The Centre at Dilli Village has bunkhouses, self-contained cabins and campsites.

Dilli Village provides accommodation for students and staff, and access to field study sites for primary, secondary and tertiary student groups and accommodation for groups and individuals. There is a central dining area with a commercial kitchen and large verandahs currently used for teaching.

We were sad to see Simon and Jodi Parker leave and are very grateful for their time managing Dilli. Leesa and David have settled in well. FINIA members passing Dilli are encouraged to call in and say hello to Leesa and David, and if you are staying at Dilli, ask David about his card tricks.

To contact the managers, please call Leesa Downey 0413 736 610 or David Mierocha 0479 107 098. The best reliable contact number is the Dilli Village land line 07 4127 9130 or dillivillage@usc.edu.au.
