This afternoon I was invited to attend the 40th anniversary and unveiling of the new garden area for Pinemont Preschool, located in Ringwood North. The new garden area, like earlier accessibility works, was funded through a community grant provided by Maroondah City Council.

Like most other kindergartens in Victoria, a voluntary parents committee manages Pinemont, which is responsible for the upkeep of the preschool and also the implementation of projects such as the new garden area.

The new garden area will provide the kindergarten with an outside reading and activity area and harnesses the beauty of the natural environment around Pinemont.
