About the project

We’re building an early learning and childcare centre in Nicholson. The Victorian Government-owned centre will be run by Early Learning Victoria.

The centre will provide long day care, Three-Year-Old Kindergarten and Pre-Prep programs, with space for up to 102 local children in the centre each day. The centre may also include other spaces for community use.

From 2026, Four-Year-Old Kindergarten will transition to Pre-Prep in East Gippsland Shire Council with children eligible to receive 16 to 20 hours of Pre-Prep.

We are working on confirming the best location for the centre. We expect to confirm this by mid-2025.

Visit the Early Learning Victoria website for more information about the government-operated centres.

This centre was previously known by the name of Nicholson and District Early Learning and Childcare Centre (interim name).

Funding

This centre is one of 50 early learning centres that will share in approximately $14 billion as part of the Victorian Government’s Best Start, Best Life reform.
