Close community, nature, and family life for educators in Tasmania
Kadie Cunningham, Assistant Director of Goodstart Kings Meadows, moved back for a better life.
Goodstart Derrimut
At Goodstart Early Learning Derrimut, children are encouraged to explore their environment and learn through problem solving and open-ended experiences.
Children's artwork is displayed throughout the centre and adds to our colourful atmosphere.
Our Pre school room is currently run by a Kinder teacher and an assistant. The children are currently learning the Alphabet, days of the week, numbers, and how to recognise and write their own names. In term four we introduce lunch box days to help encourage the children to open their lunch and prepare them for the big journey at school.
Our centre encourages children to build friendships with peers and educators through a variety of play experiences. All experiences are planned to build each child's self esteem and to assist in helping them to feel valued and worthy. Our centre has implemented the Early Years Learning Framework.
We offer 2 years of kinder. That's two years of continued high-quality early learning, playing and making friends. Everything your child needs to feel ready for school.
Art and music experiences are provided on a daily basis which allow the children to freely express their creativity.
Mandeep Kaur
Centre Director
I am thrilled to introduce myself as the new Centre Director at Goodstart Derrimut
My name is Mandeep Kaur, and I am excited to join this wonderful community. I recently completed my Bachelor of Early Childhood Teaching. With 13 years of experience in early childhood education, I am passionate about creating a nurturing and enriching environment for children to learn and grow. I look forward to getting to know each of you and your amazing children as we embark on this journey together.
My personal philosophy is all about play-based learning, as I believe that children learn best when they are surrounded by a calm and relaxed environment and that when children are learning through their interests, they achieve so much more.
I believe that families and community members have the most influence on the learning and development of their children. When families and educators work together with children, their learning is well supported and extended.
Building strong relationships with families is very important to me, and I am committed to maintaining open communication and fostering a supportive community. I am here to ensure that your children have the best possible experience at our centre.
Thank you for welcoming me into your community. I can’t wait to meet you all and work together to create a bright future for our children.
