Goodstart Early Learning Girrawheen

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.

Hi, my name is Tracey Robinson, and I am the Centre Director of Goodstart Girrawheen.

I have worked in the Early Childhood Education and Care industry for more than 20 years. During this time, I have held a variety of roles which has allowed me to gain valuable knowledge and experience of the early years education sector.

It is an honour and privilege to work at Goodstart Early Learning Girrawheen, with such a diverse team and community of parents and educators. I have a huge heart and passion for the role I play, and look forward to working alongside our current families, and new families to come.

As a Centre Director, I lead and mentor a team of highly skilled educators to provide high-quality early learning and care with the aim to exceed the National Quality Standards. Our educators are passionate, hardworking and continuously expanding their skills through professional development, as this plays a central role in delivering quality education and care.

Parents are our primary partners and by working together we provide the highest quality care for our children and families. Our centre provides a safe and secure environment for your child to build their confidence and feel a sense of belonging.

I look forward to meeting you and showing you our amazing centre and exceptional staff. Give us a call to book a tour and become a part of the Goodstart Girrawheen family.
