Helping honour your loved one
Funeral planning can be a daunting task. That's why so many families choose Valley Funeral Services for their funeral arrangements. We are a family owned and operated business.
We understand that every funeral is different - because every person is unique. We provide services to the community of the Hauraki District, Thames-Coromandel District, and the surrounding areas.
It is our aim to support you in your bereavement. We will assist you in creating a burial or cremation ceremony that celebrates the life of your loved one. A funeral service is a time to say goodbye the way you want.
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.
