Security was tight and conditions were aligned to ensure rehabilitation of these young offenders. Its name by then was Highfield Probation Hostel.

capacity can carry 132 children (committed and on places of safety) boys and girls aged 6 years to 17 years.The orphanage provides refugee, care, protection, life skills, basic needs and education to orphans and vulnerable children.
