Goodstart Early Learning Pialba

Pialba is a welcoming, inclusive early learning centre where children are encouraged to learn, play and grow through child-led experiences. Located on Butchulla Country, the centre has a strong connection with Butchulla Elder Aunty Karen, supporting meaningful opportunities for children to learn about culture, community and Country.

Families value the centre's experienced, long-standing educators, with team members who have been part of the community for up to 25 years. This continuity helps children develop secure relationships and a strong sense of belonging. Children also have access to large natural outdoor spaces where they can explore, move, imagine and learn through play.

The centre offers Toddler and Preschool/Kindergarten programs, with two Bachelor-qualified Kindergarten teachers supporting children's learning and development. Children benefit from community connections and educational experiences including First 5 Forever, library visits, dental and optometry visits, and opportunities to engage with Royal Fair West.

With families from diverse cultural backgrounds, Pialba celebrates inclusion and creates an environment where every child and family is welcomed. Conveniently located close to local shopping, schools and the hospital, the centre is open from 6.45am to 6.45pm, supporting busy family routines.
