Construction on the Ashwood Memorial Kindergarten facility has finished, with two 33-place kindergarten rooms, outdoor learning environment and staff working spaces and amenities.

Y Kinders will welcome new and returning young faces to the brand-new facility for an exciting start in Term 1 2025. 

Council is refurbishing and extending the existing Ashwood Memorial Kindergarten and creating an additional 33 place kindergarten room. The refurbishment and extension to the Ashwood Memorial Kindergarten is part of Council’s commitment to the accessibility of early childhood services in Monash.

The Ashwood Memorial Kindergarten currently operates with 30 approved places. The project will add a second kindergarten room (33 licensed places) building into the vacant land next to the kindergarten.

Upon project completion, Ashwood Memorial Kindergarten will have:

• An additional kindergarten room adding 33 places to those already being delivered within the existing facility
• New amenities
• Upgraded outdoor learning environment whilst retaining the existing landscape

Consultation with key stakeholders, including service providers and service users has been undertaken to inform the design of Monash early years facilities.
