Welcome to Goodstart Early Learning Caloundra

Goodstart Early Learning Caloundra is located in the heart of Caloundra, close to schools, shops, and public transport. We cater for children aged 15 months to school age, with a focus on supporting their learning and development through the Early Years Learning Framework. Our qualified teachers run accredited Kindergarten and Pre-Kindergarten programs to ensure children are well-prepared for school.

We follow the Key Educator Approach, which fosters strong connections between children, families, and educators. This approach ensures consistent, responsive care tailored to each child's needs. Our large outdoor play area is equipped with sandpits, a vegetable garden, worm farm, compost bin, swings, and shaded spaces for exploration and imaginative play. The centre also features an Indigenous yarning space, where children engage in daily Acknowledgement to Country and learn about Aboriginal culture.

Through our Storypark platform, regular family nights, and newsletters, we maintain open communication with families and customise programs to reflect each child’s interests and strengths. We actively engage with the community through excursions, including our popular Beach Kinder program.

We warmly invite you to visit our centre to see how we can support your child’s early learning journey.
