National Child Protection Week

SCHF Art Program

In September, Sydney Children's Hospitals Foundation Art Program and the Sydney Children’s Hospital’s Network Child Protection Unit worked together to raise awareness about Child Protection Week, 1-7 September. Child Protection Unit Staff, SCHF Artist Educators, and SCHF Volunteers engaged with staff and patients at Sydney Children's Hospital, Randwick, and The Children's Hospital at Westmead to deliver an art activity pack to children on the wards.

The children were invited to participate in an art activity by responding to this prompt:

“Draw your favourite person who listens to you when you are in hospital”
