Petition addressed to: NSW Government and Sydney Water

KU Kira is more than just a childcare centre; it is the heart of our community. For years, it has provided a safe, high-quality, not-for-profit space for our children to grow. Now, Sydney Water plans to sell off this vital public land for private profit, forcing our centre to close by year-end and leaving local families stranded. We cannot stand by while essential social infrastructure is stripped away during a national childcare crisis. Join us in demanding that the NSW Government steps in to stop the sale, renew the lease, and protect KU Kira for the next generation of local kids

Reason

This cause is vital because we are in the midst of a national childcare crisis where high-quality, not-for-profit places are already incredibly rare. Closing KU Kira doesn't just displace families; it permanently strips away essential social infrastructure from a community with few alternatives.

Thank you so much for your support, KU Kira Families , Sydney

Why people sign

All kids deserve access to high quality early education and removing a facility in the area will place enormous strain on families who need care to be able to work

Local child care is important!!

To ensure my son continues getting the best education he can before entering school. The staff at this centre are amazing and closing it for any reason (but especially financial windfall) is the wrong decision

My older grandson attended there and it was a wonderful and nurturing place for him. My second grandson is now there and is a happy and well adjusted three year old. It is such a loss to the Paddington community for the Water Board to close this wonderful centre.

My son currently attends Kira. We love this daycare and the support it provides to many family’s in the area.
