Welcome to Goodstart Early Learning Sunbury - Ligar Street

Goodstart Early Learning Sunbury – Ligar Street provides nurturing care and education for children aged six weeks to five years. Conveniently located near the train station, shopping complex, and leisure centre, we are a hub of community engagement.

Our experienced team is a cornerstone of our service, with many educators having been with us for over two years, some nearing a decade. Several team members are bilingual, speaking languages such as Hindi, enhancing our culturally inclusive environment.

Our rooms, from nursery to kindergarten, are thoughtfully designed following the Early Years Learning Framework, offering sensory and play-based learning opportunities tailored to each child’s needs, interests, and strengths. We foster strong relationships with families to personalise each child’s learning journey.

Outdoors, our play area features natural materials and plants tended by the children themselves, encouraging interaction and a connection to nature. Sustainability is at the heart of our programs, instilling respect for the environment both at the centre and at home.

Our qualified cook prepares fresh, nutritious meals daily, including breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, and a late snack, catering to all dietary needs.

We maintain strong community connections, collaborating with local businesses, the Hume City Council, and inclusion services. Annual participation in the Sunbury Fair is a highlight for our centre.

Communication is key, with updates shared via Storypark, email, Facebook, and our foyer displays. We value open dialogue with families to ensure everyone feels connected and informed.

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.
