50 NEW Early Learning Centres in Victoria!
/The Victorian Government is opening 50 NEW Early Learning Centres around Victoria by 2032!
Early Learning Victoria centres provide long day care with integrated three- and four-year-old kindergarten and have the trusted education and care we need for our families.
The spaces are welcoming, inclusive and support play-based learning – exploring and discovering nature and interacting with others. The educational programs are tailored to each child, to support their learning and wellbeing.
Centres offer flexibility and are open 7am-6pm Monday to Friday (including school holidays). Children enjoy nutritious meals and snacks prepared fresh each day by on-site professional cooks, all included in the daily fee. Nappies, wipes and sunscreen are also provided, further reducing costs for families.
