About Goodstart Rockingham

Located close to a breathtaking coastline, Goodstart Early Learning Rockingham is a warm, welcoming centre that places emphasis on the natural environment. From learning environments flooded with natural light to spaces and a playground that provides opportunities for children to learn as they explore, discover and imagine, Goodstart Rockingham holds a great appreciation and connection to its natural environments. Providing opportunities to explore outcomes associated with creativity, initiative and resilience, the natural environments encourage children to take considered risks in decision making, develop friendships, conduct experiments and nurture wild imaginations.

Our centre was assessed by the Australian Children’s Education and Care Quality Authority (ACECQA) and we received an overall rating of ‘Exceeding’. This process is a National Framework, which rates all Childcare Centres across Australia against the National Quality Standards.

Each learning environment has been designed with children at the forefront, with opportunities to explore, learn and grow in respectful ways. Our learning environments provide children opportunities and support throughout play to solve problems, make enquiries and engage in critical thinking. Our learning environments at Goodstart Rockingham are inspired by a holistic approach, where educators see children’s learning as interconnected and integrated. Goodstart Rockingham also places emphasis on the relationships between children, families and the community and highlights the importance of mutual, respectful relationships and partnerships for learning. 

Our centre caters for children from the age of six weeks up until five years, as we celebrate, honour and welcome children, families and educators from a diverse range of nationalities. Educators at Goodstart Rockingham also outline the importance of developing secure, respectful and reciprocal relationships. Throughout nurturing and responsive relationships, educators create opportunities and moments for children to feel respected, valued and develop confidence. Our responsive and respectful learning relationships are strengthened over time as children and educators have the opportunity to learn together and share moments of respect, trust and decision making.

At Goodstart Rockingham, we also offer a Nature Kindergarten program named Barn Bodjara - walk of the country. Where on one day each week our three to five year olds explore various natural areas within the Rockingham community. Children choose the direction of their learning and the educators facilitate and extend the children’s learning where required. This is a unique program that is not offered in any other early childhood setting in the Rockingham region.
