Gippsland East electorate schools
Tim BULL (Gippsland East) (12:57): The White family contacted my office last week in relation to an enrolment issue they have with their twins Roegan and Indigo, who both have additional needs. Last year the children attended an early learning centre, with much discussion on whether they were ready to attend school this year. They were eventually enrolled at Nungurner, but despite the best efforts of the school, who did a good job, it became apparent they were not ready socially or developmentally. Their teacher and their specialists all agreed, and they returned to kinder. However, the Department of Education has now advised the kinder to unenrol them both due to them having attended prep. I ask the minister to intervene and put in place an arrangement that best suits this family.
