Everyone’s welcome

Join Captain Starlight and his team of amazing volunteers for games, arts and crafts and music.

The Starlight Express Room is a bright, happy place that looks and feels nothing like a hospital.

Whether you’re in hospital for an appointment, a day or longer, you can pop in and enjoy all the fun and games. You can also bring the rest of your family with you.

Can’t leave your room at the moment?

You can still have fun, even if you can’t leave your room. We can bring activities straight to your bedside, including books, toys, games, art and craft, or a visit from the Clown Doctors. There’s even a Patient Entertainment System that gives you access to free-to-air TV, Foxtel, radio and the Internet.
