Some sun’s never set

– Elaine Hamilton

Thank you.  Two little words that hold such great strength.  Thank you to everyone at NJH.  The young people, their families, the NJH team, the Directors; Julia and Stewart Cowan, Dr Irene Stevens, Maureen Anderson, and everyone who I have come across during my NJH Journey.  A huge thank you to the Residential child care community and all the organisations that have supported us and me over the past 3 years.  I am profoundly grateful to be part of such an inspirational community. 

NJH has been a place of great learning and growth for me.  It has been an opportunity to embrace residential child care in a way that encompasses all of my believes about loving, caring, encouraging and believing in children. read more
