Preschool Relocation Program

In reply to Mr GARDNER (Morialta) (29 July 2016). (Estimates Committee A)

The Hon. S.E. CLOSE (Port Adelaide—Minister for Education and Child Development, Minister for Higher Education and Skills): I have been advised of the following:

Preschool Relocation Program Total Project Cost$’000 2016-17 Budget$’000 Site Relocations
Jamestown B-12 3,082 0 Jamestown Community CPC relocated to Jamestown Community School
Lockleys Preschool 3,500 0 Lockleys Preschool relocated to Lockleys North Primary School
Miltaburra Preschool 388 0 Miltaburra CPC relocated to Miltaburra Area School
Cranston Street Preschool 3,100 0 Cranston Street Kindergarten relocated to Port Lincoln Junior Primary School
Morphett Vale Preschool 3,030 0 Morphett Vale Preschool relocated to Pimpala Primary School
Sir Thomas Playford Kindergarten 2,600 0 Sir Thomas Playford Kindergarten relocated to Elizabeth South Primary School
Maitland Preschool 2,040 800 Maitland Preschool relocated to Maitland Area School
Woodville West Kindergarten 1,950 500 Woodville West Kindergarten relocated to Seaton Park Primary School
Ashton Kindergarten 2,100 0 Ashton Kindergarten relocated to Uraidla Primary Schools
21,790 1,300


I am advised the delay in the completion of the program was due to two projects. The Woodville West Kindergarten relocation project was upgraded to a Children's Centre as part of the 2015-16 State Budget. The Maitland Preschool relocation required more time for consultation as part of the Voluntary Amalgamation Program.
