One Funded Place Form - Free Kinder Declaration

Each organisation will be able to setup their own One Funded Place Declaration Form Communication.


The content of the email communication to the parents is designed by you (there is an example below). Each organisation will need to select the relevant form for their service and programs offered (links below).


This article will walk through the 4 steps to setup the emails, forms and submission list views. 

Please also see below links (in orange) to videos demonstrating the key steps and required actions.

Example words for NY (next year) email template 


Dear ${Lookup:Parent / Guardian 1 Name.First Name},


We are excited that ${Children.Child Name} will be attending ${Children.Parent Organisation} for ${Children.Upcoming Program Type}.


${Children.Parent Organisation} participates in Free Kinder. 


Free Kinder is available in 3 & 4YO Kindergarten programs across Victoria at participating services at both standalone and long day care services. Participating kinder programs will receive funding directly from the Victorian Government, so families are not out of pocket (and don’t have to claim the savings back).


Your child can only access one funded kinder program at a time. This means that only one service can claim kindergarten funding for your child and pass on the Free Kinder savings.


The Department of Education require services to collect a signed declaration form from parents/guardians. This form is called the One Funded Place Form. The Department of Education requires:


"At the beginning of the kindergarten year, service providers must provide written confirmation to all families that tells them their child is receiving a funded kindergarten place at their service.


Services must also make sure that these families have a signed a form to confirm their child is receiving their funded kindergarten program at their service and keep a copy on the child’s record."


Please click on the link below to submit your form for ${Children.First Name}. 


Please Note: If you have accepted your one funded place at another service, you will not be able to receive funding for your child. Please contact us to discuss further.
