Early Learning Victoria Wirmal

We’re building an early learning and childcare centre at Clunes Primary School in the Shire of Hepburn.

The Victorian Government-owned centre will be run by Early Learning Victoria. The centre will provide long day care and Three- and Four-Year-Old Kindergarten programs with space for up to 102 local children each day.

The centre will have outdoor play areas, a maternal and child health consulting room, and a carpark. It will also have a community room for meetings and playgroup.

Building the centre at the school will help some parents avoid the double drop-off. It makes childcare and early learning accessible and convenient for working parents and carers. It can also make the transition to school easier for some children.

Visit the Early Learning Victoria website for more information about the government-operated centres.
