The program was introduced in 2016 to give more children in rural and remote parts of Queensland access to kindy.
Education Minister Grace Grace said 134 kindy programs are now being 116 rural and remote state schools.
“The expansion of this program means up to 177 extra children will have the opportunity to attend a face-to face kindy program at their local state school,” Ms Grace said.
