Maryland Public Preschool

project banner

As part of the plan to rebuild public education, the NSW Government is investing $769 million to deliver 100 new public preschools, co-located with public primary schools in NSW, to boost access to public preschool across the state. This is the largest investment in public preschools in NSW history, helping more children access a preschool program before starting school.

Work is underway to deliver a new public preschool at Maryland Public School. The proposed location of the preschool is near Building K.

The new public preschool will provide a safe and engaging environment for preschool children. It will feature specially designed rooms and a quality outdoor play area. The construction of the preschool is expected to be completed in time for Day 1 Term 1 2027 to accommodate up to 40 children per day.

The benefits

  •  2 preschool rooms  

  • an outside play area

  • administration area, amenities, staff kitchen and storage. 

Maryland Public Preschool will offer a high-quality play-based educational program. It will be staffed by qualified educators and teachers in line with national regulations.

First new public preschool delivered 

Gulyangarri Public Preschool is the first of 100 new public preschools that recently opened as part of the NSW Government’s commitment to expand access to early childhood education.

Take a 3D tour of Gulyangarri Public Preschool to see the facilities delivered. 

We have adopted a standardised design approach, which has been developed in consultation with educational experts as well as design and engineering specialists for the 100 public preschools program. This approach also complies with the National Quality Framework (NQF).
