Kinder Update

The location of the Kinder was recently finalised at a meeting with the Kinder Committee, School Council, Flowerdale Recovery Committee, Jarara Committee, Department of Education and Early Childhood Development and Murrindindi Shire Council.

After taking into account a range of considerations including:

• The Future Flowerdale Forum input
  
• DEECD policy relating to integration of early learning with schools
• Safety and Accessibility

The decision was overwhelming in support for the Kinder to be located at the school.

A work group has been formed and will meet this week to discuss initial placement and design criteria for the new Kinder building. The Kinder project will be led by VBRRA's Flowerdale Project Control Group which has been established to support Flowerdale's recovery.

We will keep people updated via the blog and community newsletter as more information comes to hand. It is good to see movement on this project as it has been identified as one of the priority projects in the recovery process.
