What you need to know
Montgomery Park Kindergarten is undergoing a major redevelopment to meet the growing needs of our families in Moonee Valley.
Project dates and updates
Project update 31 July 2025
Following recent feedback received during the consultation period, changes have been made to the planting schedule. Please find the updated list of plant species (doc, 105KB) that will be delivered as part of the landscaping works, along with reference images (PDF, 3MB) of the selected plants.
All shrubs will now be supplied in a minimum 14cm tubestock size to support healthy establishment.
In addition to the planting, drainage works will also be carried out as part of this scope.
To support the long-term success of the landscaping, an extended maintenance period has been included to ensure the ongoing health and vitality of the plantings. Council’s Parks teams will work closely with the contractor to ensure the new plantings are installed correctly and receive the necessary maintenance to support successful establishment.
Infill plantings of advanced Jacaranda trees are scheduled for the nature strips along Hilda Street to establish a consistent avenue and help restore canopy cover. These plantings form part of the current street tree planting program and are expected to take place in the coming months. During the site assessment, a few small street trees with low useful life expectancy were identified and will be removed to make way for the new plantings.
Features and upgrades
The redevelopment will deliver improvements including:
- 3 rooms to replace the current single room
- capacity for 68 more children
- inclusion of a Maternal Child Health suite.
This is a visual representation only and is an example of mature tree plantings.
