About the project

We are refurbishing Mitchell Park Kindergarten. It will look and function better, and be safer for children and staff.

We will install:

  • a new roof
  • new internal walls and doors
  • double-glazed windows
  • a new carpet
  • a secure entry foyer
  • vinyl floor coverings.

We will upgrade the bathroom to include a bath, change table, storage and preparation spaces. We will also extend the veranda. Outside we're refurbishing the external cladding and installing secure perimeter fencing.

About the project

We are upgrading the outdoor environment and landscaping. The project includes:

  • a new cubby and natural play fort
  • concrete paved pathways
  • soft-fall surfacing
  • an enhanced sandpit to make the space more accessible to children of all abilities.

There will be a yarning circle complete with fire pit – creating a culturally safe, inviting space for our community. We will install vegetable garden beds and plant Indigenous vegetation and fruit trees.

We will build a dry riverbed to tie the spaces together.
