Goodstart Mount Gambier

Goodstart Early Learning Child Care Centre Mount Gambier is located in a safe and secure pocket of our community, close to main roads and shops as well as local schools - making the daily drop-off and pick-up much simpler and stress free for busy families.

We aim to provide a homely atmosphere for the children and to provide natural and inviting place spaces for children of all ages. Our centre currently holds the 2017 SA/NT Goodie Award for family relationships and inclusive practices.

Our educators are highly qualified with all holding their Diploma or studying towards their Diploma or higher. We pride ourselves on the genuine relationships we build with our children and families.

Our play based, stimulating curriculum is based on the Early Years’ Learning Framework and our rooms – from Nursery to Kindergarten / Preschool – are all geared with this in mind. We also develop colourful, engaging programs accounting for each child’s individual interests, needs and strengths; and with each step we are ensuring the children are ready to take the big step into schooling.
 
This is made simpler through our intuitive Storypark platform, which enables us to maintain consistent and clear communications with families. That means we are better placed to support a child in their learning journey, ensure parents have peace of mind, and time stamp the children’s developments, milestones and achievements.

One of the many attractive features of our centre is the number of shade structures we have in our outside yards. We have carefully designed and planned spaces to encourage a stronger understanding of the environment and sustainability – while giving children the scope to explore, play and let their imaginations roam.

A major focus for our centre is how working with the broader community can help us enrich the children’s learning experience. Through visits to the centre as well as excursions and participation in community events, we are able to deepen the relationship between the centre and the community, while teaching the children about being a contributing and active member of society.

At Goodstart Mount Gambier, we view children as capable and competent learners, enabling them to make decisions around the structure of their days, and encourage their independence from an early age.
 

Drop in and say hello! We would love to make you and your family welcome and the centre and discuss how we can start your child on a journey of lifelong learning.
