Welcome to Goodstart Thornbury - Hutton Street

Located just opposite Thornbury Primary School, our new Goodstart Thornbury Hutton Street centre is designed with community, convenience and children’s growth at its heart.

In the middle of this vibrant, family-friendly community, you’ll find our centre has ample onsite parking, easy access for drop-offs and pick-ups and beautifully designed indoor and outdoor spaces that cater for up to 96 children, from 6 weeks old right through to school age.

For families who were with us before our old centre unfortunately had to close, this is your chance to reconnect with the same warm, familiar faces you already know and trust. For new families, we can’t wait to meet you, get to know your story, and begin this journey together.

Our team of passionate, experienced educators will bring each room to life with play-based learning aligned with the Early Years Learning Framework, celebrating every child’s unique interest and cultural background.

The centre will feature:

  • Spacious, light-filled classrooms from Nursery to Kindergarten
  • Natural outdoor play areas 
  • A qualified in-house cook preparing fresh, nutritious meals each day
  • Connections with Thornbury Primary School and other local schools to support school readiness in their kinder/pre-school years
  • Family-friendly events, learning updates via Storypark, and a welcoming, inclusive environment

Our new Hutton Street home offers the ideal space for children to learn, play, and thrive in a location that truly supports growing families.


We can’t wait to welcome you* to Goodstart Thornbury - Hutton Street where lifelong learning begins.

*Please note: Our new centre is in the final stages of preparation and is pending service approval from the VIC Department of Education’s Early Childhood Education Directorate. This is the formal step all early learning services must complete before officially opening.

We’re excited to welcome families to tour the centre, as soon as we receive approval and will keep you updated every step of the way.
