In the mid-1960s, recognising the difficulties some boys were having in finding accommodation after leaving the Morialta Children's Home, the Home's Board of Management decided to establish a Hostel. The Toorak Gardens Hostel opened in 1967 and it provided accommodation for older boys who were working or studying.
In 1972 the Hostel was renamed, along with the Children's Home, as the Morialta Children's Homes Incorporated. Both institutions operated under this name until 1974.
