Community members who want help inform and influence future Council decisions are invited to submit an expression of interest to join the Early Years Advisory Committee.

The role of the Early Years Advisory Committee is to provide information and advice to Council on Early Years matters in multiple areas including:

  • Play spaces for children (indoor and outdoor)
  • Occasional care
  • All abilities facilities
  • Playgroups
  • Kindergartens
  • Indigenous early years literacy & health
  • Supporting development in the 0-3 years age bracket

The Committee must have a minimum of five members, with at least two Councillor representatives and three to eight community members, selected based on their skills, equity, and diversity.

“Advisory committees like this one play a key role in shaping Council’s decision making to achieve the best outcomes for the community,” says Mayor of Baw Baw Shire Cr Annemarie McCabe. “I encourage any community members who would like to help shape the future for Baw Baw’s youngest residents to put their hand up and submit an expression of interest. It’s a great opportunity to make a real difference.”
