By Portal Admin - 21st January 2018 - Back to News Bass Coast Shire Council is excited to announce an Open Day at the Bass Valley Children’s Centre on Tuesday, 23 January, and encourages families to come and meet the staff and see the beautiful new facility.
Bass Coast Shire Council Mayor, Cr Pamela Rothfield said the Centre will provide excellent opportunities for families who live in and around the Waterline area and is the result of much hard work from the community.
"The Bass Valley community has worked long and hard to see this day," Cr Rothfield said.
"Not only have they made a significant financial contribution to the project, but they have played a huge role in making sure the needs of families in this community have been met.
"They have helped drive this project from the very start.
"Having had an early peak at the centre, I am confident that the facilities here will impress the most discerning parent. It is just wonderful!"
The Centre will offer early learning programs such as four-year-old kindergarten, long day care, casual and vacation care. Programs will be tailored to the age and stages of children, meeting the Victorian Early Years Learning and Development Framework.
Additional visiting and specialist services such as Maternal Child Health and parenting programs will also operate from the Bass Valley Children’s Centre.
