In 2017, Warrnambool City Council will provide an opportunity for families to access a three-year-old kindergarten program in Warrnambool.

The program will operate at the Mahogany Kindergarten, attached to the West Warrnambool Primary School.

Preschool Coordinator Mary Chenoweth said research shows that the earlier children have access to quality educational environments, the better.

“Children develop and learn more rapidly during their first five years than at any other age,” she said.

“The kindergarten program will provide a safe and nurturing environment where children are encouraged and supported to develop confidence, independence, self-awareness and a feeling of self-worth.

“Mahogany Kindergarten is a wonderful environment that is designed specifically for young children to explore with wonder and enthusiasm. They have a wide range of resources at their fingertips as well as the opportunity to be involved in the school community.”

The kindergarten will operate on Wednesday and/or Fridays from 9am-12pm during school terms.
