State Government to extend funding to Council-run
Preschools in Term 1 - 2021
13 January 2021
We are pleased to announce that due to both Federal and NSW Government funding South Hurstville Kindergarten (Council’s only pre-school service) will remain open in 2021 starting Term 1 on Monday 25 January 2021. Council is able to provide 15 hours per week of early education at no cost to enrolled families. The new arrangements will be temporary; however, the arrangements will remain in place for the remainder of Term 1, 2021.
This service will be open between 8.30am and 4.00pm on Monday Tuesday, Thursday and Friday and 8.00am to 4.00pm on Wednesdays. Preschool fees, as listed below, will only apply to Wednesdays.
Our After Care Service between 4.00pm and 5.00pm will continue in Term 1 but, will need to be pre-booked a week in advance via email.

Our Beliefs
We believe that children are competent and capable individuals, who function within a socially driven community of family, peers and educators. This belief guides our practice in the provision of a developmentally appropriate, balanced programme which focuses on all areas of development, positive self esteem, social, emotional, physical, cognitive and language.
Our Objectives
We recognise that learning is a life long process and aim to provide an early childhood experience that is positive for both the child and their family within the pre-school years.
