Free Kinder – Giving Your Child the Best Start

As part of the Best Start, Best Life reform, the Victorian Government is providing Free Kinder funding to participating early childhood services. This initiative ensures that families have access to high-quality kindergarten programs at no cost.

  • Four-year-old children can attend a free 15-hour kindergarten program.
  • Three-year-old children can access a free kindergarten program ranging from 5 to 15 hours, depending on availability.

Please note that families can only claim Free Kinder funding from one kindergarten service.
