FOSTER & FLOURISH RETREATS

Supporting foster families to rest, connect and flourish — together 🌿

Being a foster family is beautiful… but it can also be exhausting, overwhelming, and non-stop.

That’s why we’ve created something truly special — a fully hosted family retreat experience designed for both carers and children to relax, reconnect and make meaningful memories together.

This is not just a break for carers, this is a shared experience for the whole family.

Set in stunning Port Stephens, each retreat includes:

🏡 Private family accommodation (sleeping up to 2 adults + 4 children)
🍽️ Catering
🌊 Local adventures – sand dunes, wildlife encounters & beach days
🧘‍♀️ Wellbeing sessions for carers with Youtopia
🎨 Fun, engaging activities for children
🔥 Connection time, campfire nights & memory-making moments

Whether you’re new to fostering or have been on the journey for years, this retreat is designed to give your whole family the space to:

slow down
reconnect
feel supported
create moments

Because foster families deserve more than just a break…
They deserve time together that fills their cup.

Rest. Connect. Grow. Flourish.
