About the project
We built a new early learning and childcare centre at Eaglehawk North Primary School in the City of Greater Bendigo.
The Victorian Government-owned centre is run by Early Learning Victoria. The centre provides long day care and Three- and Four-Year-Old Kindergarten programs, with space for up to 102 local children each day.
The centre has outdoor play areas as well as a consulting room for child and family services such as allied health, and a car park. It also has a room for community meetings and playgroup.
Building the centre at the school will help some parents avoid the double drop-off. It makes childcare and early learning accessible and convenient for working parents and carers. It can also make the transition to school easier for some children.

Your new centre’s name
In consultation with local Traditional Owners, Early Learning Victoria Nyernilang Lar was chosen as the name of the new early learning and childcare centre at Eaglehawk North Primary School. Nyernilang Lar is a Dja Dja Wurrung word meaning 'learning place' or 'centre'.
We used Eaglehawk North Primary School Early Learning and Childcare Centre as an interim name while it was being planned, designed, and built.
Funding
This project was funded as part of $3.8 billion allocated for early childhood infrastructure since the 2015–16 State Budget. It supports the delivery of the Victorian Government’s Best Start, Best Life reforms.
