About our centre
Goodstart Paralowie Byron Bay Drive is in a growing suburb within the Northern area located between Mawson Lakes and Salisbury. We are situated alongside Bethany Christian School and Temple Christian College where we have a strong relationship with students and teachers from both schools who visit the centre for child studies, performance opportunities and have painted our outdoor murals. We also support transition to Bethany for those families who enrol their children in this school.
Our educators are committed to providing a friendly supportive atmosphere with a focus on working collaboratively with families. Educators value inclusion for all children who attend our centre and we have developed strong relationships with support agencies to ensure best outcomes for all children.
We now have two Early Childhood Teachers, one working in the Pre-kindy room, preparing the children for the transition into the Kindergarten room, while the other implements our Kindergarten program. We also have an Educational Leader who ensures the educators are supported with documentation to ensure the centre meets the requirements set by the Department of Education.

We offer a kindy program which is run by our Early Childhood Teacher which enables our 4 year olds to participate in a learning program to develop and support the skills required to successfully transition to school. This program is supported by funding from the Universal Access program which enables the children to have incursions at the centre.
Our beautiful nature based outdoor spaces include a water fountain, ample undercover sandpit and dry creek beds.

Sarah McAllan
Centre Director
Hello families
My name is Sarah McAllan and I am your new Centre Director for Goodstart Paralowie. I have had over 25 years’ experience in Early Childhood Education and have a passion for providing high quality care and education in the early years. I have worked in Leadership roles with Educational professionals and Allied Health professionals in a range of settings to provide inclusive education and ensure the best outcomes for all children. I hold a Bachelor of Early Childhood Education (HONS).
I have a strong belief that the first 5 years of a child’s life significantly shapes lifelong learning skills. I believe that families are children’s biggest advocates and always at the centre of everything that we do. I feel privileged to be leading the team of dedicated educational professionals at Goodstart Paralowie to continue to deliver outstanding quality care for all our children.
I look forward to getting to know you and partnering with you to ensure that you have a high-quality experience for both you and your child at Goodstart.
Please feel free to say hello anytime!
