Goodstart Early Learning Pooraka

Located on Kaurna Country, Goodstart Pooraka is a welcoming and inclusive early learning centre where every child and family is supported to feel a strong sense of belonging. Our close-knit community creates a safe and nurturing environment where children are encouraged to explore, grow and learn in ways that reflect who they are.

Our experienced and passionate team, with educators ranging from 5 to 18+ years at the centre, provides consistency and trusted care. We take a child-centred approach, supporting children of all abilities, backgrounds and needs, and working closely with families to ensure personalised support for every child.

Children benefit from large, flexible learning environments, including open-plan over 2’s spaces and a calm, dedicated Nursery. Our expansive outdoor areas are accessible throughout the day, encouraging movement, exploration and independence.

Our government-approved preschool program, delivered by two Bachelor-qualified Early Childhood Teachers, focuses on building the social, emotional and practical skills children need for a confident transition to school.

We are proud of our multicultural team, with educators speaking a wide range of languages, helping families feel understood, respected and connected.

Guided by the Early Years Learning Framework, children engage in play-based learning that supports creativity, resilience and curiosity.

Families often tell us it is our inclusive approach, strong communication and genuine care that make our centre feel like a second home.
