From January 2011 each eligible child enrolled in a funded 4yo service must be offered access to a program of a minimum of 10 hours and 45 minutes (10.75 hours) per week.
 
This is due to changes in Department of Education and Early Childhood Development (DEECD) Victorian kindergarten policy, procedures and funding criteria.
 
 
 
 
 
WPSA MISSION STATEMENT
