Early childhood education
Sheena WATT (Northern Metropolitan) (17:36): (40) My adjournment matter is directed to the Minister for Early Childhood and Pre-Prep, Ingrid Stitt. The education of our next generation is so important for the development of life skills that will set them up for the future. I visited many early childhood education centres in my region and have spoken with staff and families who have told me how excited they are for the rollout of free three-Â and four-year-old kinder, meaning more choice, more flexibility and more money saved. My question to Minister Stitt is to ask if she could kindly update me on how the free three-Â and four-year-old kinder will assist families tackling the rising cost of living in the Northern Metropolitan Region.
