Goodstart Early Learning Garran

Goodstart Early Learning Child Care Centre Garran is conveniently located behind Canberra Hospital, within walking distance to CIT and Woden Plaza. Our large car park makes drop-offs and pick-ups safe and stress-free.

Inside, each room from Nursery to Kindergarten/Preschool is designed in line with the Early Years Learning Framework. We focus on sensory and play-based learning, ensuring a stimulating environment where children can grow, develop, and prepare for school.

Our Storypark platform, family nights, and newsletters keep communication with parents open and clear, allowing us to tailor programs to each child’s needs, interests, and strengths. We celebrate the cultural diversity of our families, which includes Chinese, South American, Aboriginal, African, Indian, and Thai backgrounds, enriching the learning experience.

Outside, our three play areas feature sandpits, vegetable patches, a fort, cubbyhouses, and big trees, encouraging environmental awareness and sustainable practices. Meals are prepared on-site by our qualified cook, ensuring children enjoy healthy, fresh, and nutritious food.

Community involvement is key to our centre’s philosophy. We host events and excursions to help children learn about contributing to society and develop a sense of belonging.
