About Us
Our Values
Academy Funerals is an independent, Queensland family-owned company, proudly serving our community since 1998. As a family-operated business, we approach every service with the deep care and respect we would provide to our own loved ones. We recognise that each farewell is unique, reflecting the personal wishes and feelings of those grieving; hence, we firmly believe there is no standard way to grieve, only your way.
Over the years, we have had the privilege of assisting thousands of Queensland families in honouring their loved ones. In your times of need, our commitment is to be there for you—not just as funeral service providers but as compassionate supporters, ready to assist and guide you through every step of planning and conducting the funeral.
Our family and our team of experienced funeral consultants are on hand 24 hours a day, seven days a week, to ensure that all your needs are promptly and sensitively met. We operate across North Brisbane, South Brisbane, the Sunshine Coast, and the Gold Coast, guaranteeing that wherever you are, we can reach you with our services.

What Can We Do For You?
We take your privacy very seriously and respect the need for discretion.
Our family and staff believe in and practice, the following: –
Personalised Celebrations of Life: We firmly believe there is no ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ way to celebrate a life or conduct a funeral service. Each ceremony is a personal reflection of the individual’s life and legacy, shaped by the needs and wishes of their loved ones. Our approach is to provide a space where families can honour their loved ones in ways that are meaningful to them.
Compassionate Guidance: We are here to listen, offer advice, and gently guide those we serve towards making arrangements that respect their family’s emotional, spiritual, practical, and financial needs. Our role is not just to organise a funeral, but to support families through their grief with understanding and care.
Respectful Care for the Deceased: Every individual in our care is treated with the utmost respect and dignity, as if they were a member of our own family. This principle is central to our practice, ensuring we provide a caring and thoughtful service at all times.
Transparency and Honesty: We maintain a policy of transparency and honesty in all our dealings, whether with client families, suppliers, professional colleagues, or the broader community. We believe that trust is the foundation of the support we offer, ensuring that all interactions are conducted with integrity.
Fair and Responsible Pricing: Our pricing reflects a commitment to responsible business practices, focused on minimising overheads to offer financially accessible options to our client families. We strive to make our services available to everyone, ensuring that cost does not prevent a dignified and heartfelt farewell.
