A Good Night’s Sleep

 

It is important for children to have a good night’s sleep. There is no magic number for exactly how much sleep we need, but the Australian Centre for Education in Sleep (ACES) suggests the following as a guide:

 

Primary school: 10-12 hours per day

 

High school adolescents: 8-10 hours per day

 

Adults: 7-9 hours per day
