Springvale has a number of special areas dedicated to meet the specific needs of particular groups within our community.
Jewish GravesSpringvale Botanical Cemetery offers a range of grave types for use by the Jewish Community. Headstone Lawn Graves may be complemented with a striking array of roses or placed within a more traditional lawn setting. |

Traditional monumental graves are available for the Jewish community. These graves are set up to accommodate cultural preferences and allow for the placement of a full monument.
A dedicated children’s area has been allocated within one of our Jewish Memorial Gardens. This area was developed after consultation with the community. |
Police Lawn GravesThe Police Memorial within Springvale Botanical Cemetery provides Police Officers, their families and friends with a private and spiritual place in which they can pay their respects. A plaque for each Police Officer who has died whilst on active duty is positioned around the rock. Lawn graves adjacent to the Police Memorial are available as the final resting place for members of the Police Force and their families. The memorials on these lawn graves take the form of a bronze plaque on a granite base. Each year in September the Police Memorial hosts the official close of National Police Remembrance Day. All are welcome. |

Australian War GravesWithin the grounds of Springvale Botanical Cemetery is the Australian War Graves Garden of Remembrance. The garden honours the veterans buried within it, as well as those with a remembrance plaque on the official Australian War Graves walls. |
Australian War Graves has its own on site administration office, with the entry housing register books which list the wall and row number of each individual plaque located on the Garden of Remembrance walls.
