About the Centre/Service TRY Australia is an independent, non-denominational not-for-profit social enterprise focused on giving young people, individuals and families opportunities to reach their potential. Our social businesses and programs cover three main areas: promoting universal access to early learning and childcare, providing accredited youth mentoring and training, and creating opportunities for employment pathways. Italian Kindergarten at North West Brunswick Kindergarten is unique. It is not just an Italian class – it is a full 15 hour bilingual preschool program. Our Italian Kindergarten program includes Italian cultural traditions and language, while also preparing children for school. It follows the national curriculum framework, embedding language learning into preschool learning through play. There is no need to attend another preschool program. The teacher for Italian Kindergarten is a qualified Early Childhood Teacher and native Italian speaker. Our Italian Kindergarten is open to all children eligible for preschool and we welcome non-Italian families as well as those with Italian heritage. Italian Kindergarten qualifies for the preschool subsidy, which keeps fees low.
