More than 2,600 children in WA will benefit from the grants, which will focus on improving Kindergarten participation and outcomes, including for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander and disadvantaged children.
The grants have been made available to the Early Childhood Education and Care sector in WA through the Preschool Reform Agreement (PRA).
The program is administered and part funded by Child Australia.
