Richard Shannon From: Richard Shannon Sent: Wednesday, 12 June 2013 3:02 PM To: [email protected] Subject: FW: Proposed Gordonvale Kindergarten Importance: High Dear Andrew, Please find the below response from the Department to your earlier queries originally registered with Clive Dixon, Regional Director, Far North Queensland. • The Department of Education, Training and Employment's kindergarten planning methodology involves an assessment of supply and demand for kindergarten places in a local planning area. • The supply of kindergarten places is estimated from the licensed capacity of existing early childhood education and care services, using a formula agreed with Childcare Queensland. This takes into account total potential places available in early childhood education and care services, regardless of actual utilisation. Population data is derived from the 2011 census. • The kindergarten planning data for the Gordonvale local planning area identified a deficiency of kindergarten places. The local planning area comprised Gordonvale, East Trinity, Goldsborough, Green Hill, Little Mulgrave and Wrights Creek. • The new kindergarten service will provide up to 44 places for kindy-age children in the year before full time school (i.e. turn four years by 30 June in the year of enrolment). • The service will provide a kindergarten program for 15 hours per week, 40 weeks per year (school hours and during school terms) and charge fees for children that enrol. • The service will not be eligible for the Australian Government's child care benefit (CCB) subsidies. • The service will be eligible for subsidies under the Queensland Kindergarten Funding Scheme (QKFS). Families with an Australian Government Health Care Card or equivalent may be eligible for additional subsidies which can make access to a kindergarten program low or no cost. -

Ap2 Final 16.2.17
PALASZCZUK’S SECOND YEAR AN OVERVIEW OF 2016 ANN SCOTT HOWARD GUILLE ROGER SCOTT with cartoons by SEAN LEAHY Foreword This publication1 is the fifth in a series of Queensland political chronicles published by the TJRyan Foundation since 2012. The first two focussed on Parliament.2 They were written after the Liberal National Party had won a landslide victory and the Australian Labor Party was left with a tiny minority, led by Annastacia Palaszczuk. The third, Queensland 2014: Political Battleground,3 published in January 2015, was completed shortly before the LNP lost office in January 2015. In it we used military metaphors and the language which typified the final year of the Newman Government. The fourth, Palaszczuk’s First Year: a Political Juggling Act,4 covered the first year of the ALP minority government. The book had a cartoon by Sean Leahy on its cover which used circus metaphors to portray 2015 as a year of political balancing acts. It focussed on a single year, starting with the accession to power of the Palaszczuk Government in mid-February 2015. Given the parochial focus of our books we draw on a limited range of sources. The TJRyan Foundation website provides a repository for online sources including our own Research Reports on a range of Queensland policy areas, and papers catalogued by policy topic, as well as Queensland political history.5 A number of these reports give the historical background to the current study, particularly the anthology of contributions The Newman Years: Rise, Decline and Fall.6 Electronic links have been provided to open online sources, notably the ABC News, Brisbane Times, The Guardian, and The Conversation. -
