Curriculum and programs

Curriculum and programs
The educators at Goodstart Early Learning follow an evidence-based curriculum that aligns with the Early Years Learning Framework. Informed by world-leading research, practices and techniques, the curriculum encourages the children’s natural curiosity and engages them in their learning journey.
As the children move through the different rooms in the centre, the curriculum evolves with them. The educators set goals for the children and celebrate as they reach their milestones. At every stage, the educators are tailoring the curriculum and goals to each child’s individual needs.
The curriculum involves different types of learning experiences and styles. From child-led learning to sessions guided by educators, the children participate in small and large group sessions as well as individual play. Most importantly, the children learn through play, developing social skills, confidence and independence in addition to more formal academic skills.
Play is the order of the day of Goodstart Early Learning and the programs at the centre are grounded in a play-based approach. The educators embed teaching and learning into play experiences, helping the children to make sense of the world around them. This is how the children learn about how things work and develop important foundational relationships and skills.
The primarily child-directed, play-based curriculum ensures that the children are engaged in their learning. They are encouraged to take the lead, developing their negotiation, risk taking, problem solving and social skills. The educators observe the children and help to challenge them by extending their learning and interests.
The educators recognise that every child is unique and that they bring their own needs, interests and strengths with them each day. The program is designed to be flexible to cater to these differing needs, ensuring every child has the opportunity to thrive at Goodstart.
Parent communication and involvement

Parent communication and involvement
Goodstart Early Learning uses the StoryPark app to connect with parents throughout the day. The educators upload photos and stories to the secure app, which parents can access anytime and anywhere to track their child’s progress.
The approach at the centre is very much based around partnership between families and educators. The educators work with the parents and carers to build strong relationships. They develop trust so the children can feel safe and secure while at the centre. Parents are also encouraged to share their insights and feedback with educators to add depth to the relationship.
The educators observe the children every day and tailor the program around their observations. They share these with parents, so they can feel connected to their child’s progress and also provide feedback that will further enhance their child’s learning experience.

Our daughter is in pre-kindy now and the educators in the big kids’ rooms are amazing, a big shout-out to Kiran, Kulwinder, Tina, Miho and Saane for all the care and support they give every day. Our daughter absolutely loves coming in, and it’s so nice knowing they’re in such good hands. Read more

From my son to now my little girl, Nicki has played such a huge and positive role in both of their early years. Her passion, patience, and genuine care for the children really shines through in everything she does. She builds such strong, nurturing bonds with the little ones, and they absolutely adore her. One of the things that has always stood out to me is how well Nicki manages the nappy changes and nap routines. Everything is done with such care and attention. My little ones always come home clean, well-rested, and happy – which speaks volumes about the consistency and high level of care she provides throughout the day. What I really appreciate is how calm and structured her room is. She creates a safe, loving, and engaging space where the kids can feel secure, grow in confidence, and enjoy learning through play. Nicki takes the time to understand each child’s personality and needs – and that personal touch makes all the difference. Even after we moved, I chose not to change centres because I didn’t want to take my daughter away from such a positive environment – especially the care and support she receives from Nicki. That says a lot about the trust and appreciation I have for her and the whole team at Goodstart Brookwater. Thank you, Nicki, for everything you do – you’re truly a gem, and we’re so grateful to have had you care for both our children. Highly, highly recommend Read more
