Victoria announces more Building Blocks funding to support upgrades and expansions
Victorian kindergartens will benefit from a further boost to the popular Building Blocks improvement stream grants which allow individual services to apply for grants of up to $500,000, an increase of $200,000, for upgrade projects including renovation and refurbishment.
The Government has also increased grants for minor infrastructure projects to improve the quality of services for families and children to $70,000, up by $20,000, and grants for IT devices like laptops, tablets and televisions to support learning to $2,000 – an increase of $500.
“Boosting our Building Blocks grants will help local councils and early childhood services across Victoria improve their kindergartens, deliver better learning experiences and help set our kids up for the future,” said Minister for Early Childhood Ingrid Stitt.
