The Victorian Government will open 11 more kindergartens at government schools in 2026 and 2027.
These new kindergartens will create more than 1,700 additional places for local families, making quality kindergarten programs easier to access.
Locating kindergartens on or close to schools makes drop-off more convenient for busy parents and carers and provides a smoother transition for children to primary school.
Since 2019, the government has delivered 60 new or expanded kindergartens on or near school sites.
