The whole family left London in 1912, the ships destination was New Zealand.

Just to clarify the above .... the FLATMAN family were destined to leave the ship ("Mamari") at Sydney, Australia, (their place of "intended future residence" - as recorded on the passenger list).  :)
"Mamari" - departed London - 9 May 1912 - arrived Sydney (via Capetown) about 18 June 1912, where it disembarked passengers, before going on to New Zealand.

Parents of Grace Eliza NICHOLSON (nee FLATMAN) :

Burials at Woronora Memoral Park, Sutherlandshire, New South Wales, AUS.

FLATMAN - James - d. 18 May 1931

FLATMAN - Emily* (nee BUTLER) - d. 25*  June 1940


Findagrave website has a photo of headstone.

Also, if you have access to ancestry.com  (either by subscription - or often available at larger libraries -- there a numerous records for the wider FLATMAN family.)

Added :   Correction >  *  Just spotted that Emily's date of death was recorded in newspapers as "26 June 1940" (rather than "25 June" - which was given in another "record".   That record (for cemetery), also shows she was buried as "Emily Esther FLATMAN" :

James FLATMAN (father of Grace E. ) :

A newspaper tribute to James FLATMAN  >  (Australian site)
https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/235042094?searchTerm=James%20Flatman

This is helpful in that it names his family members, and gives a little info about his time in Australia.  ;)

Hi gingerbit ... depending on just what information you are wanting for family FLATMAN, the "Trove"  (Australia) website is helpful for newspaper articles, family notices, etc. etc.

https://trove.nla.gov.au/

And for (Australian) funeral/death notices of later years, try the RYERSON index :

Hi gingerbit

Again, if you have access to ancestry.com - there are around 22 "trees" for James FLATMAN (died Australia) / Emily BUTLER on that site.   
[Some "trees" have wrong birth surname for Emily ... others have "collected" enormous amounts of "names"  ;D ... but plenty to choose from otherwise. ]
