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.

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.
