Nearly 22 years in business has seen Adventure Park become one of Victoria\u2019s leading family attractions.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Under the leadership of sisters Leanne, Carla and Bree Salmon, the Park has also become a living, breathing example of a modern family friendly workplace as they, like many other women in business, juggle motherhood and running a company.<\/p>\n

With five children under the age of five between them, the sisters have carved out their own child friendly workplace culture.<\/p>\n

You can often find their children and the children of other staff in the Park or around the office.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019ve definitely created the best kind of product to include our children,\u201d Leanne, whose daughter is now 10 months old, said.<\/p>\n

\u201cOf course there are times when we need to focus on projects and we\u2019re grateful to have our partners and the support of parents, in-laws and child care to help, but sometimes there\u2019s no other option for parents and we get that.\u201d<\/p>\n

While new rides like the Tornado are certainly crowd pleasers, it\u2019s extras such as the ability to BYO picnics and the Ride Buddies parent support program that can make a visit to Adventure Park so much easier on parents.<\/p>\n

Adventure Park is at 1249 Bellarine Highway in Wallington, find out more at adventurepark.com.au.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
