Home for children without family (9)

I believe the answer is:

orphanage

(Other definitions for orphanage that I've seen before include "home for kids" , "building" , "Institution for parentless or abandoned children" , "with deprived children" , "Children's home" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
