Milne Legacy House, in Strathfield, was run by Sydney Legacy. It was described by the Senate in 2005 as a “transition home for children including total orphans or children permanently or temporarily separated from their mothers”. It was designed for children ‘destined for institutions’ or ‘on discharge from them’ to be accommodated under Legacy’s care. It also provided temporary care for children “when the mother was hospitalised; when the child was sent to Sydney for medical treatment or while awaiting a final court decision in cases of neglect or some other offence not involving a criminal element” (Senate, 2005).
