Five kindergartens in Melton are receiving up to $10,000 in grants as part of the state government’s Building Blocks Inclusion Grants program.
Melton MP Steve McGhie and Children’s Minister Lizzie Blandthorn announced that Goodstart Early Learning Melton – High Street, Goodstart Early Learning West Melton, Arnolds Creek Kindergarten, Bridge Road Kindergarten, and Cambrian Preschool are this round’s successful funding recipients.
“I’m proud to see services in Melton benefit from this vital funding, creating spaces where every child feels included and empowered to reach their full potential,” Mr McGhie said.
The funds, designed for projects that help children engage in activities, build skills, and ensure early learning is inclusive for all abilities, can be used to buy moveable and accessible equipment, such as mobility tools, adjustable furniture, and sensory equipment.
“Every child deserves to actively participate at kindergarten, no matter their ability – these grants will make sure kinders have the inclusive facilities and equipment they need to support all children to grow, learn and play,” Ms Blandthorn said.
