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.

We've been entrusting our precious little one to Goodstart Angle Park since he was a mere 5 months old, and the experience has been nothing short of exceptional. The care, attention, and nurturing environment provided by the dedicated staff have played a pivotal role in our child's growth and development. From the outset, the centre's commitment to creating a safe and stimulating space for children is evident. The educators go above and beyond to foster a sense of curiosity and exploration, ensuring that each child's unique needs are not only met but exceeded. We've witnessed our child's milestones celebrated, his unique personality embraced, and his days filled with engaging activities that strike the perfect balance between fun and educational. The consistent communication from the caregivers has been a reassuring touchpoint for us as parents, providing insights into our child's daily adventures and achievements. As parents who place a premium on our child's well-being and early education, we couldn't be happier with our decision to choose Goodstart Angle Park. The professionalism, warmth, and genuine care exhibited by the staff make it clear that this isn't just a daycare centre; it's a nurturing community that becomes an integral part of your child's formative years. Thank you, Goodstart Angle Park, for being a second home for our little one. Read more

One day I found her being put on a stroller with few other kids with no hood and being moved around in hot weather. My daughter's face was red because of hot weather and I knew she felt sick and uncomfortable. When I questioned, staff said she didn't want to sleep. They torture the kids when the routine is not followed. Non reliable staff with very poor standards. Read more
Hi Nadeera, I think you may have left your review on the wrong listing as we have no family by your name ever enrolled at our centre and we do not have any strollers at our centre either.
All my 3 children have attended / are attending this centre and I have had no issues with any of them. One of... All my 3 children have attended / are attending this centre and I have had no issues with any of them. One of my children has special medical needs and the whole centre was made aware of this and looked after her so well. They are empathic and are open to working with parents, you can tell they are doing their best. The last two years under Covid restrictions have been particularly difficult for all of us and the centre has been very accommodating and understanding with our family's situation with changing schedules. Most of the staff has worked in the same centre and that's a good sign that the workplace is also looking after them. Read more
Thank you so much for this wonderful feedback Jess! We are so glad to hear that you are happy with the care your children receive at our centre. Thanks for being part of our family at Goodstart Angle Park! :-)
