Constituency questions

Hawthorn electorate


Hawthorn electorate

Mr KENNEDY (Hawthorn) (11:46): (2311) My constituency question is for the Minister for Education and concerns the upgrading of facilities at one of the many excellent preschools in my electorate of Hawthorn. West Hawthorn Pre-school is a wonderful facility, and on 10 March I was thrilled to be there to announce that the government would be contributing $500 000 towards an extra classroom to increase capacity for three-year-old kindergarten, a meeting room for parents, refurbished toilets and a storeroom. This project was developed to meet the future demands from families in the West Hawthorn precinct and to meet the increased hours and funding of three-year-old kindergarten. My question is: when will the minister or the Parliamentary Secretary for Early Childhood Education visit West Hawthorn Pre-school to see the new facilities when works are complete?
