ABC Learning Centre

In 2009, a consortium of leading community sector organisations - The Benevolent Society, Mission Australia, the Brotherhood of St Laurence and Social Ventures Australia - came together to initiate the formation of Goodstart. At Goodstart, we're all about laying the foundation for better lives through great early learning experiences.

Exceptional Quality: Our practice will be world class; we will deliver 'best practice' and discover 'next practice'. Inclusion for Everyone: We will be a place of opportunity where all children, families and Goodstarters feel safe to belong. Impact beyond Goodstart: We will create an unstoppable force for change in the early years ecosystem.

Children are at the centre of everything we do and Goodstart is committed to working with families to provide the ideal early learning environment for your child. Delivered by qualified teachers, Goodstart's Kindergarten and Preschool programs recognise this is a time of transition, learning and fun.

Goodstart offers vacation care for children aged 5-12 years. Our fun and educational program uses the "My Time, Our Place" framework with a focus on learning through play and leisure, where children are challenged to be curious about their interests.

Our vacation care programs are specific to each centre and include a variety of experiences ranging from excursions (where we go out into the community), incursions (where a provider comes to us), physical activity, project work and more.Your local Goodstart Centre Director will develop an engaging weekly program for each school holiday period.

Finding the right early learning centre for your family can be difficult. It's essential to choose somewhere that works for everybody, in regards to the physical location, the experiences offered within and, above all, the vibe you get from the team and children there. At Goodstart Early Learning, we welcome you to visit our early learning centres so you can meet our team and view the learning environment.
