To provide children who are in need with a break from their everyday life, giving them the opportunity to develop a healthy lifestyle and to build self-esteem during their stay.

More information

 

Each year 1,800 public school children in need come to Stewart House from many parts of NSW and the ACT. During their stay, children are provided with optometric, dental and medical treatment as well as emotional support. This is balanced with health and educational programs and out of school activities to boost their self-esteem and to promote a healthier lifestyle. Children in the care of Stewart House attend a specific purpose school onsite for 8 days of their 12-day stay. The NSW Department of Education and Training provides infrastructure and staffing support for this school. All others costs associated with the childrens' stay are met from charitable donations. Stewart House needs your support to ensure we can continue to provide important services to children.
