About the project
Colac Otway Shire Council renovated and refurbished the kindergarten. These works ensured the kindergarten is able to meet its target capacity of 33 children.
The kitchen was upgraded to allow children to participate in cooking activities. The staff office space was converted to a parents’ meeting room. Families can use it to discuss their child’s progress with the educators. Support services can use it to liaise with families and children in a familiar environment.
Extra storage space has created an effective and functional work space.
Funding
As part of the 2017–18 Children's Facilities Capital Program $301,500 was allocated to the project.
