The C.W.A. Girls' Hostel was established by the Country Women's Association in 1952 in Haig Crescent, Bunbury. It was also known as Heath House. It provided accommodation for girls attending Bunbury High School, replacing the Mary Clementina Hostel for Girls. Initially the hostel only had accommodation for 10 girls, however it was planned to increase this number following renovations to the house. It is possible that the girls hostel merged with Craig House, the C.W.A Boys Hostel in Bunbury, in 1965 when the boys hostel also began accepting girls, however this has not yet been confirmed.
