Our kids deserve the best possible start in life.

That’s why a re-elected Cook Labor Government will deliver free, full-time kindy for 4-year-olds.

It means better educational outcomes for children, for generations to come. 

Free Kindy will also save families thousands on childcare costs – delivering cost of living relief.

Plus, we’ll expand out of school hours care to more primary schools, supporting more WA
families.

This builds on WA Labor’s record of delivering cost of living relief for WA families including:

🎒 The WA Student Assistance Payment - providing $150 for each kindergartener and
primary school student and $250 for each secondary school student to assist with school
costs.
🔨 Making 130 priority TAFE courses free, saving Western Australians thousands in tuition
fees.

🚆Making public transport free for students with a SmartRider during the school week
