A heartfelt thank you to Premier Dan Andrews, Nick Staikos MP and Cr Jim Magee for spending time with the staff, children and families at Glen Brady Rd Kindergarten this week. It was wonderful to share in the excitement of the $9 billion dollar investment into Early Childhood and to discuss the positive impact this will have on children and their families.
Thank you to our incredible educators, Stella, Lynne, Lee and Manisha – you all did an outstanding job of safeguarding children (because it can be overwhelming to have so many people in the room!), welcoming our special guests and engaging in conversation about the importance of what we do!
Thank you also to our families that stayed to meet the Premier.
Did you know that Glen Education have already commenced delivering up to 15 hours of high-quality kindergarten for 3-year-old children? We look forward to having 3YO kindergarten fully funded for families, from 2023.
We also already have options for 4-year-old children to attend kindergarten beyond 15 hours of education, by attending extended hours programs. We are currently working through a plan to deliver up to 30 hours of funded kindergarten for 4-year-old children, and will be ready when the funding commences in 2025!
