Sons of Manasseh Children's Home is more than a place to live. It is a home where children are cared for, protected, encouraged and given opportunities to grow into their future.
At Sons of Manasseh Children's Home, we strive to create an environment where every child feels safe, cared for and valued.
Our home provides children with more than their basic needs. We create opportunities for learning, play, friendship, personal development and participation in everyday life.
From education and meals to healthcare, protection, psychosocial support and counselling, our approach is centred around the wellbeing and development of each child.
Everyday life at the home includes learning, playing, sharing responsibilities, building friendships and creating memories together.
Education is an important part of life at the home. Children are supported as they progress through different levels of education.
Sports, games and recreational activities give children opportunities to have fun, develop skills and spend time together.
Children grow together as a community, learning cooperation, responsibility, respect and care for one another.
We encourage children to discover their abilities, develop confidence and prepare for their future.
Our home includes spaces that support children's daily needs, education, recreation and wellbeing. As we grow, we are also working towards developing permanent facilities for the children.
Safe and caring spaces where children can rest, live and grow together.
Spaces that support education, reading and children's development.
Areas where children can play, enjoy sports and participate in activities.
Our sustainability efforts include projects such as farming and our chicken coop.
Life at the home is made up of everyday moments. Getting ready for school, learning, playing, sharing meals, participating in activities and spending time together all form part of life at SMCH.
These experiences help children develop confidence, independence, relationships and a sense of belonging.
We believe that children deserve an environment where they can simply be children while being guided and encouraged to dream about their future.
We currently operate in semi-permanent structures and desire to build permanent facilities that will provide a stable and safe environment for the children.
Our plans include dormitories, a dining hall, kitchen, administration block, classrooms and perimeter fencing.
