About the project
We are building a 3-room kindergarten at the new Wirrigirri Primary School and construction will be completed in mid-2025.
The kinder will be run by the City of Whittlesea and will open in 2026. It will be able to offer kinder to 99 children at a time. It may be able to enrol more local kids by spreading classes throughout the week.
Locating the kinder at the school will help some families before and after school with drop-off and pick-up. It will also help some children make a smoother transition into primary school.
This kindergarten was previously known by the name of Wollert Central Primary School Kindergarten (interim name).
Enrolment
All enrolment and program enquiries are managed by the City of Whittlesea.
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 4 of the 2023 Building Blocks Capacity Grant stream.

Modular kindergarten buildings
As funded kindergarten for 3 and 4-year-olds becomes more available across Victoria, we are making sure there are enough kindergarten places to meet increased demand.
Kinders at schools
New Victorian primary schools will have a kinder on-site or next door. We're also planning and building a pipeline of kindergartens at existing schools.
