START STRONG FREE PRESCHOOL PROGRAM 2022

NSW Government has announced a new Start Strong Free Preschool program for mobile and community preschools.  In 2022, $150 million will be provided to sustain the delivery of free preschool attendance for an additional year.

The Start Strong Free Preschool program will replace to COVID-19 Free Preschool Funding Program in 2022, supporting preschools to sustain the delivery of free preschool for at least 600 hours a year (or around 15 hours a week) for another year.

This means that Hunter Mobile Preschool will once again have free attendance at preschool for 2022, the only fee payable for the entire year will be our $55 annual enrolment fee per family.
