Welcome to Goodstart Early Learning Boonah

Goodstart Boonah is a rural centre located on the outskirts of Boonah, in the Scenic Rim Shire, near local schools, shops, and community amenities. Our centre provides care for 65 children, from six weeks to 12 years old, and is open year-round, Monday to Friday, from 6:00am to 6:00pm, except on public holidays.

Our experienced local educators create engaging, play-based programs following the Early Years Learning Framework, tailored to each child's interests and strengths, ensuring they are well-prepared for school. We also foster community connections through monthly park play events, building relationships with the broader community.

The centre's outdoor spaces feature a blend of natural and manmade elements, including swings, sandpits, gardens, a veggie patch, and sustainability areas, encouraging environmental awareness and creativity. We maintain a Sun Smart environment accredited by the Cancer Council.

We use the Storypark platform to keep families updated and involved in their child’s learning journey. Art and music are integral parts of our daily activities, providing children with opportunities for creative expression.

We invite you to visit our centre and explore how we can support your child’s early learning and development.

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.

Meet the team

Goodstart Early Learning employs qualified and skilled educators who are dedicated to making a difference to the children in their care. The centre employs people who are empathetic and compassionate, with a nurturing disposition and a passion for care. Working collaboratively as a team, the educators display qualities such as positivity, kindness and, most importantly, a desire to help every child thrive.

The educators hold relevant qualifications, including the Kindergarten and Preschool Program teachers who are university qualified. The educators are lifelong learners, participating in regular and ongoing professional development to enhance their skills. They are encouraged to upskill, learning about the latest research and thinking in the sector. They can then bring this knowledge back to the centre to share with their colleagues for the benefit of the children.
