About the project

We helped deliver a new early learning centre to Sebastool. The new centre is called Yirram Burron, or 'Morning Children'. It is a culturally safe and welcoming early childhood service in the heart of Ballarat's Aboriginal community.

The centre embraces and embeds Aboriginal perspectives into:

  • service delivery,
  • structural environment, and
  • educational curriculum.

Yirram Burron delivers kindergarten and long day care places to the local community. It aims to inspire children and engage families to enhance educational outcomes for Aboriginal children.

Funding

In Round 2 of the 20–21 Building Blocks Capacity Grants $900,000 was allocated to the project.
