CBCK has chosen to OPT-OUT of the Victorian Government’s Free Kindergarten Initiative for 2023. This decision was made by the Committee of Management and took into consideration feedback from various community members including the 2023 cohort of parents.
This decision was primarily made to maintain the high quality program we currently provide including:
-
capping class size to 22 children,
-
continuing various extra curricular weekly programs such as Creative Movement Program and French for our Four Year Old Group children
-
introducing an extracurricular weekly program into our Three Year Old Group Program
-
continuing to be able to offer a number of Incursions and Excursions
-
providing high quality resources for our children
-
attracting and retaining high quality staff and supporting them in their professional development
