Victorian Minister for Early Childhood Education Ingrid Stitt and Member for Yuroke Ros Spence visited the new $7.07 million Greenvale West Community Centre last Friday to officially open the facility.
Designed to support families to access early childhood services under one roof, the integrated children’s centre is next to Keelonith Primary School and will have almost 200 kindergarten places.
The centre has a maternal and child health consulting suite, a specialist consulting room for early intervention services and a multipurpose activity room, which can also be used by the community.
In partnership with Hume City Council, the Labor Government contributed $1.6 million to the new centre as part of the Children’s Facilities Capital Program.
“This children’s hub will give families in Greenvale West the quality early years and family services they need to help their children thrive,” Ms Stitt said.
