IMPORTANT NOTICE
WET WEATHER IMPACT
During this wet weather event we ask that you use extreme caution when visiting the Park - Stay safe.
Due to the amount of rainfall received and forecasted weather for the coming days, areas of our Park now require remediation work.
The Grounds team focus on this as a priority as soon as the weather permits and the grounds are dry enough. Carrying out work at this time and while the grounds are wet will cause further damage to the Park.
We appreciate your understanding during this significant weather event. Please do not hesitate to reach out to our office if you have any questions.
We have partnered with OneRoom to provide a quality video streaming option for family and friends who are unable to attend the funeral service. All that is needed is an internet connection and a device that can display video, and the email invite to access recording.

Cremation Information
Funerals can seem like a complicated affair, and there is a lot to know about cremation. We've provided some information about what to expect from each step of the cremation process, as well as information about scattering ashes.
The Cremation Process
Cremation is an ancient death ritual and a modern alternative to a burial. Cremation is the preferred choice for some religions and is also considered to have less of an impact on the environment than a burial.
While most people understand the basic concept of a cremation, the modern cremation process is regulated and detailed with set steps to follow. In Australia, cremations take place at a crematorium. Any flowers or items that may interfere with the process are removed and staff ensure the correct procedures are followed. Learn more.
Scattering Ashes
Scattering the ashes of a loved one has become very popular in Australia. However, choosing the right location is important as a lasting memory in the future. Very often people choose to scatter ashes in a location that was special to their loved one, but over time such places may change or even be built upon, changing the location and with it the memory.
Creating a memorial in a special place helps keep the memory alive beyond the funeral service. Memorials give families and friends a tangible source of comfort, and are an everlasting place to come and remember your loved one. In a memorial park, ashes can be placed without fear of the location changing. Download (.pdf)
