About the project

We are building a new kindergarten at Leneva (Frederic Street Road) Primary School (interim name).

The new building will open in Term 1, 2026 and will have two kindergarten rooms.

Having the kindergarten and school together may help local children make a smooth transition into primary school and can also make drop-off time simpler for some families.

Enrolment

An approved provider will be appointed and announced in late 2025. All enrolment and program enquiries will be managed by the provider.

Subscribe to our mailing list to be notified when the provider has been announced.

Funding

In the 2023-24 State Budget, this project shared in $1.3 billion allocated to build around 100 new kindergartens to support Best Start, Best Life.
