THE Captains Flat Community Preschool has been forced to relocate after lead “above a safe level” was found at the school in February.
The preschool, on Foxlow Street, closed temporarily for a deep clean when it was found to have “above health investigation” levels of lead detected in the playground, outside the preschool and in the reserve behind the preschool, before reopening in March.
A statement on the preschool website said the preschool will relocate to a new site near the Captains Flat Public School by July.
It also stated that NSW Crown Lands recommends the preschool site be “disused” and “remediated”.
