Friday 8 May 2009 has been designated STEWART HOUSE DAY. Stewart House Dolphins and tatoos will be sold during Week 2 of Term 2 in order to raise funds for this very important organisation. This has the backing of both the NSW Department of Education and Training, the Teachers Federation and the Federation of Parents and Citizens' Associations of NSW. Stewart House helps children develop Healthy Lifestyles and build self-esteem. Each fortnight, 90 children from across NSW and the ACT arrive at Stewart House. Children participate in a program and attend the Department of Education and Training school that is within the grounds of Stewart House.
 

During the program children:
- Receive free eye, dental and health screening and treatment.
- Develop self-care and conflict resolutions skills.
- Learn to relax and overcome anxiety.
- Participate in excursions and activities to develop a broader outlook on life.
- Establish friendships and routines in a safe community.
- Increase their self-esteem.
