Council proposes changes to kindergarten
20 June 2023
Knox City Council will consult its kindergarten staff on whether Council will remain a standalone sessional kindergarten provider or lease its buildings to other providers from January 2025.
Under the proposed changes, Council would continue to run sessional kindergarten at the Knox Children and Family Centres in Bayswater and Wantirna.
Working with the Department of Education, who have primary responsibility for kindergarten, new providers would be identified to lease council buildings to continue offering a choice of high-quality kindergartens for local families.
Council will meet in August to review staff feedback and make a final decision.
