This includes enrichment programmes provided by preschools, such as speech, drama, robotics, and coding classes, allowing preschoolers to fully tap on the learning opportunities offered by their preschools.

Depending on the child’s birth order, families who save up to the co-matching cap will be able to tap on Government funding of between $9,000 to $20,000 in their children’s CDA.
