Educational Resources for NT Quarantine Centre

Our team in the Northern Territory put out an urgent call for support for children in the Quarantine facility in Darwin.

Thankyou Good360 for partnering with Save the Children to support families arriving back in Australia.

The Howard Springs Quarantine is one of the first and only facilities in Australia to be accepting over 9,000 returning Australian’s from India. In the next couple of months, the facility is expected to admit over 2,000 people including returnees from a number of points around the world including India, London, Istanbul and South Africa.

Many of these families have experienced traumatizing situations and are now finding themselves in an isolating facility. To support families and children, Save the Children with the help of our partners Good360, LEGO, Disney and Officeworks are distributing more than 2,000 educational packs including a range of resources to keep children learning and playing and help them cope through very difficult times.

Thanks again for your amazing support of families during this tough time!
These packs are making a really tough time that bit easier for families, and helping children to cope and keep smiling!
