PAEDIATRIC DEPARTMENT GETS A CUBBY HOUSE
Sick kids in the Hornsby Paediatric Ward will now have a hospital of their own to play in after Hornsby RSL donated funds to purchase a cubby house and associated toys. This cubby house is situated in the outdoor play area on the ward and gives the kids an opportunity to add some fun to what a challenging and scary time can often be. The funds, which were provided through the Clubs Grant program, are a testament to our local community's commitment to enhancing the well- being of sick children. In securing the funding the application highlighted the importance of creating an outdoor play area that would serve as a sanctuary for sick children, offering them a space for fun and relaxation, and momentarily escape the confines of their medical treatments. The proposal resonated with the values of Hornsby RSL, which include respect, care, and community engagement. Thank you to our amazing Staff Specialist Support Officer, Kathryn Williamson for all her hard work with the grant submission! Dr Josh Steadson–Head of Department, HKH Paediatrics
