Historic investment to make preschool cheaper for families

Friday, 5 July 2024

The Minns Labor Government is working to ensure every child in New South Wales has access to an affordable, quality preschool education, with up to 200,000 families across the state to benefit from the largest ever investment in early education fee relief.

Children of the Inner West still have the opportunity to participate in the Music Together Playgroup that will be running every week until 29 June at the Plumtree Children's Services in Jarvie Park, Marrickville.

Small Fry Rock returned to the stage at the Great Club in Marrickville this month, headlined by Sarah McLeod from The Superjesus.

There was good news last week with the announcement that negotiations with Inner West Council over the operation of the new preschool have been successful, guaranteeing the future of the award winning Globe Wilkins Preschool. 

The very best teachers, principals and early childhood educators live and work in the Inner West.

Member for Summer Hill, Jo Haylen MP, today criticised the Liberal State Government for again failing to invest in key infrastructure across the Inner West.

Congratulations to the Globe Wilkins Preschool community on this important win and for its ongoing commitment to providing exceptional early childhood education.

Parents and kids in the Inner West are thrilled to have a brand new council-run childcare centre with Yirran Gumal Early Childhood Learning Centre opening last month in Marrickville.
