The Hon. Angus Taylor MP, Federal Member for Hume, Judy Hannan MP, Member for Wollondilly, Deputy Mayor Matthew Deeth, Councillor Briggs, and Council staff were given a tour of the new building, with the help of some local children using the Wollondilly Preschool service.

Mayor Matt Gould said, “It was an honour to be able to officially open Wollondilly’s fantastic new Children’s Services Building on Monday.”

“The building is already being enjoyed by many of our local families, and this was a great opportunity for our funding partners to see the finished product and the kids in action.”

“We appreciate the funding by the Western Sydney City Deal and Start Strong Funding - NSW Department of Education to make this project possible.”
