About the project
We helped build a new kindergarten at St Padre Pio Catholic Primary School.
It can offer kinder to 99 children at a time. It may be able to enrol more local kids by spreading sessions throughout the week.
The centre also has consulting rooms and offers out-of-school-hours care.
This helps expand Victoria’s 2 years of free kindergarten, as part of our Best Start, Best Life reforms.
The kindergarten was previously known as St Padre Pio Catholic Children’s Hub.
Funding
