Members Statement - Kindergarten Funding

MEMBERS STATEMENT

‘KINDERGARTEN FUNDING ‘.

Thursday, 6 March 2025.

Mr NEWBURY (Brighton) (09:51):

With a genesis in Bayside kindergartens facing an uncertain future, our community kindergartens now meet at a community kindergarten summit.

The summit is an opportunity for kindergartens, local Members of Parliament and council to discuss challenges and opportunities the sector faces.

The chief issue for most inner-city providers is the unsustainable free kinder funding model.

Thank you to all involved in our second summit.
