Exciting News!

We’re Moving to a Brand-New Early Learning Centre in Early 2026!

Just 700 metres down the road in Cumberland Road.

We’re thrilled to share that our current early learning centre will be relocating to a beautiful, purpose-built facility opening in early 2026. This move marks the next chapter in our commitment to providing the very best early learning environment for our children, families, and educators.

As part of this transition, our existing centre will close, while we prepare our new home for service approval, designed with modern learning spaces, natural outdoor play areas, and everything needed to inspire curiosity, creativity, and growth.

All enrolled children and families will be supported every step of the way, with guaranteed placement and a smooth transition process into the new centre once it opens*.

We can’t wait to welcome you to our new home, a place built with care, connection, and a shared vision for giving every child the best possible start in life.

While we’ll soon be closing the doors of our current Early Learning Centre, we want to take a moment to celebrate the many memories, friendships, and milestones shared in our beloved space over the years. Every laugh, every learning moment, and every connection made here has helped shape the amazing community we are so proud of today.


*Opening is subject to service approval from the Dept' of Education.  Once this has been approved tours of the new centre will become available to visit our new centre.

Mousumi Chowdhury (Sumi)

Centre Director
Hello, my name is Mousumi Chowdhury (Sumi) and I am the Centre Director at Goodstart Pascoe Vale Cumberland Road East.

I have been working in this for just over 14 years. I have worked across numerous age groups, as an assistant and room leader and developed myself As an ECT in the Kinder room. I have also worked as an Educational Leader since 2021 and assisted my team to deliver high quality program where every child thrives for success. 

As the Centre Director at Goodstart Pascoe Vale Cumberland Road East, my personal philosophy is rooted in a deep commitment to fostering a nurturing and inclusive environment where children can thrive. I believe that the foundation of effective early childhood education lies in the following principles:

1.    Child-Centered Approach: I view each child as a unique individual with their own interests, strengths, and potential. It is my responsibility to create an environment that is responsive to their needs and encourages their curiosity and creativity.

2.    Empowerment through Relationships: I am passionate about building strong, trusting relationships with both children and families. I believe that when children feel safe and secure, they are more willing to explore and learn. Engaging with families as partners in their child's education enhances the learning experience and supports a sense of community.

3.    Quality and Continuous Improvement: High-quality early childhood education is essential for children's development. I am dedicated to fostering a culture of excellence within our centre, encouraging staff collaboration and professional growth. By reflecting on our practices and seeking feedback, we can continually improve our programs and the experiences we offer.

4.    Play as the Heart of Learning: I believe that play is fundamental to children's learning and development. I advocate for providing rich, engaging, and stimulating environments where children can explore, experiment, and develop critical thinking skills through play.

5.    Diversity and Inclusion: I am committed to embracing diversity in all its forms and ensuring that our centre is a welcoming space for all families. By valuing different cultures, perspectives, and abilities, we create a richer learning environment that benefits everyone.

6.    Lifelong Learning for All: My philosophy extends beyond the children to include educators and families. I believe in fostering a love for learning that lasts a lifetime. By providing opportunities for professional development and family engagement, we can cultivate a community of learners that inspires one another.

In my role as Centre Director, I am dedicated to leading by example, promoting a positive, collaborative atmosphere that encourages everyone to contribute to our vision of high-quality early childhood education. Together, we can support every child's journey towards lifelong learning and success.
