Goodstart Early Learning Petrie is nestled in the leafy surroundings of Petrie, close to North Pine Dam and nearby primary schools, making it easy for parents to continue their child's education in one location. We pride ourselves on fostering friendships that children can carry into their schooling years.
Our experienced educators, including Miss Kate, our Early Childhood Teacher who speaks Mandarin, provide exciting play-based programs tailored to each child’s individual needs. All rooms, from Nursery to Kindergarten, are set up according to the Early Years Learning Framework, focusing on sensory and play-based learning.
We integrate technology into learning through touchscreen computers and iPads, teaching children to explore and investigate in a modern world. Our Storypark platform ensures open and consistent communication with families, enabling us to tailor each program to individual needs, interests, and strengths.
Outside, our two play areas blend natural and manmade elements, helping children connect with their surroundings while learning the importance of sustainability. Fun and imagination are at the heart of everything we do.
We enrich learning through community events, art, and music, allowing children to express their creativity and connect with the world around them.

All 3 of my boys gave attended Goodstart Petrie over the last 12 years. I loved that returning back to care for my youngest, I didnt have to think twice about where I was going to send him. The centre has a very low staff turnover (some being at the centre for 20years) and you can see the care and quality education the educators provide from the moment you walk into the centre. The educators thoughtfully plan activities around the unique interests of each child and have always involved me in the planning by discussing his interests at home and their observations whilst in their care. My 3yr old has gone from being super anxious at drop offs to confidently running off to his favourite people - his teachers (before I even finish opening the door). I cannot thank or recommend the team at Goodstart Petrie enough, for creating such a safe and inclusive space for my 3yo and our family.

Goodstart Petrie is a wonderful centre. I worked as an Early Childhood Educator prior to having my own children so I was very particular about choosing a centre. The staff are so caring and interact with the children in a truly meaningful way. You can tell the culture here is a positive and supportive one and that reflects in how well they do their work. The program is progressive for an industry sometimes stuck in the past, Goodstart Petrie are a breath of fresh air. I highly recommend you take a tour. Better yet, enrol. You won't regret it.

Both my children have attended Goodstart Petrie, one when we moved after having been at another centre and the other from 12 weeks old. I cannot speak highly enough of the care and support provided to them. They have thrived in every way thanks to the lovely staff.

My child has been going to Goodstart Petrie for several months now, & I am extremely happy with how well my child has fit into this centre. All the educators & staff are very kind, warming & welcoming. The educators & staff have made me feel like my child is in good hands, and that alone brings me alot of comfort as a mother. I have seen my child confidently grow out of her separation anxiety since starting at this centre & has improved in many areas of development. Thank you Good Start Petrie 🙂❤️
