Very concerning to see the closure of a much needed pre-school service for our isolated river community.

Hi Everyone,

The SMH will be taking a photo at the new park at Brooklyn Oval at 3ish today (Friday) to complement a story about KU Mobile 1 Preschool closing at the end of the year due to changes in the funding model and the high SEIFA ranking of our area.

Reporter Rachel Browne has asked me to gather some past, present and potential pre-schoolers and their families for a photo. So if you have a few minutes to spare after School please stop by the park.
Many thanks for your support
Michelle Armstrong
