At Goodstart Ingle Farm we are situated in a prime location within our community close to local shops, schools, the United Community church and walking distance to the local library and Ingle Farm Recreation Centre - which we utilise to enhance learning opportunities for our children.
We are a supportive and inclusive centre who welcome all families within our community and believe we provide a sense of belonging for everyone within our centre.
We believe in inspiring an enthusiasm for lifelong learning which we provide for children and educators. We encourage children to wonder, question and approach new challenges with confidence. We encourage children to engage in learning with confidence and curiosity. Our natural outdoor play environment allows children to foster a love of environment and nature play.
Our purpose-built early learning centre caters for up to 75 children per day across four rooms (Nursery 0-2, Toddler, 2-3, Pre-Kindy 3-4 and Kindergarten 4-School). Our centre welcomes children from 6 weeks of age, and we strongly encourage families to stay right up until they start school, as we run a Government Funded Kindergarten program, taught by Early Childhood Teachers Miranda Bernard and Tatjana Duno, who both have over 10 years’ experience.
We are also lucky enough to have an Early Childhood Teacher Jaspreet Ajimal. in our pre-kindy room who works closely with educator Paige Fisher to ensure the children are able to access valuable play based learning in preparation for attending our kindy program.
At Goodstart Ingle Farm, you will be welcomed by our friendly, long standing staff team as well as our existing families. Together we create a beautifully unique community where we celebrate and learn from each other’s cultures. Goodstart Ingle Farm also values reconciliation, by acknowledging and learning from the Kaurna People. We have an active Reconciliation Action Plan which is created to pass this love and respect for the Aboriginal culture on to the children within our care.
We take pride in our room environments, as we believe children need to be inspired and excited by their spaces as they engage in play. This means our spaces look beautiful and inviting, but are also created to support children’s learning and development.
Goodstart Ingle Farm works closely with families to build trusting relationships and a strong sense of community. We know it takes a village to raise a child and we invite you to be a part of ours!
