About the project

We upgraded Lorne Street Kindergarten at Fawkner Primary School. We added a new one-room modular kindergarten building and an outdoor learning space. This will give children extra spaces to learn and play. The upgrade will create 33 new kindergarten places for local families by early 2024.

Funding

This project is part of the Building Blocks Partnership between the State Government and Merri-Bek City Council. The Victorian Government has provided $10.7 million to support 11 projects that will create 329 new kindergarten places in the local government area.
