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.

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 part of the Goodstart Wulagi family for a year now, and I can honestly say it’s been a beautiful experience from the very beginning. As a first-time mum, I was incredibly anxious about leaving my daughter in anyone else’s care — especially because she’s our only child and we’re a same-sex couple. But from day one, we were made to feel safe, welcomed, and never once treated differently. The communication from the director and leadership team has always been clear, responsive, and reassuring. The educators who care for our little girl are simply amazing — they’re warm, attentive, and always accommodating when it comes to our preferences and requests. I’ve had quite a few requests over time (as any nervous parent would!), and every single one has been taken seriously and actioned with urgency. It’s clear that the wellbeing and safety of the children is their top priority, and that gives us such peace of mind. We’re so grateful to have found Goodstart Wulagi — it truly feels like a second home for our daughter.
