JJ McMahon Memorial Kindergarten

John BERGER (Southern Metropolitan) (10:03): I have three matters to briefly touch on. Last week I joined the Minister for Children, Minister Blandthorn, at the official opening of the JJ McMahon Memorial Kindergarten in my community of Kew. Thanks to our landmark kinder reforms, we are giving more children the best start in life. Thanks to our $1.7 million investment as part of the 2023–24 Building Blocks capacity grants, up to 118 kindergarten places are now available. Thank you to the minister for coming down and reading a book to them, which they thoroughly enjoyed.
