About the project

We are building a modular kindergarten with 3 kinder rooms next door to Lancefield Primary School. The new kinder will be able to offer kindergarten to up to 99 children at a time. It may be able to enrol more local kids by spreading services throughout the week. The kindergarten will also include a maternal and child health room.

In February 2024 we paused works after a cultural artefact was found on the site. We worked closely with the Traditional Owners and Macedon Ranges Shire Council to follow proper processes during this time, and we now have the necessary approvals to continue works. In September 2024 we resumed construction of the kindergarten.

Funding

This project shares in $283 million provided in the 2019–20 State Budget for Three-Year-Old Kindergarten capital funding. Funding was allocated in Round 2 of the 2022–23 Building Blocks Grants – Capacity Building stream.
