About Great Beginnings Byford

Welcome to Great Beginnings Byford! We are conveniently located for families living in Byford, Darling Downs, Oakford and Whitby. 

Great Beginnings Byford is a modern, purpose built early learning centre that offers early education and care for children aged 6 weeks to 6 years old. We have an amazing team of passionate teachers and educators. Our team is dedicated to ensuring every child feels safe, nurtured and inspired throughout their education journey. From planning adventure filled experiences to building children’s self-confidence and resilience, right up until a child’s transition to ‘big school’. 

Children and teachers grow and learn together, in our state of the art, resource rich learning environments. Our centre boasts large engaging outdoor spaces including a large play fort which is designed to spark the children’s imagination and encourage play, swings and lots of natural shade for shaded outdoor play. 

Our indoor spaces invite exploration with quality resources and learning experiences. Children wonder, create, and test out their ideas as they play with a range of materials in purposeful play spaces.

Our team

The quality of our centre is underpinned by the quality of our people. At the heart of our centre is our longstanding and culturally diverse team of educators. The languages that are spoken amongst our educators include Hindi, Punjab and Indonesian. The team is consistently striving to empower, nurture and support each child on their individual learning journey. 

We know each child is an individual with unique talents and interests. Our team is passionate about their profession and truly wants your child to succeed in discovering their identity as confident, happy and resilient learners.Parents receive daily updates and photos detailing their child's learning and development from our easy to use parent App. 

Partnering with families 

Relationships are key to delivering the best possible learning opportunities for your child. Our Educators and teachers develop strong bonds with the children and their families. We view a child's early education as an extension of the learning occurring at home. Therefore, we believe a successful early learning journey needs a good partnership. We pride ourselves on working together with our families to achieve the best possible outcomes for their child. We welcome your involvement and that involvement will look different for different families.

Exploring the community

We offer a range of experiences to help children learn about their local community. We often have visits from librarians, local police, and other community services to help expand the children’s learning. We also have excursions to our local library and local primary school to assist our Kindergarten children with their transition to ‘big school’.

Reviews for Great Beginnings Byford

Jo Fletcherover 1 year ago

Would not recommend this company at all. My 3yo child passed away this year and the management (all management levels) did not care at all and tried to stop the staff (who raised this child which pretty much makes them his family) from coming to his funeral. I have also worked for this company and been shown the same level of disrespect from management and the favouritism within teams. Unless the long standing hierarchy of disrespect is attended to I would not work for them nor enrol my children with G8.

Response from the ownerabout 1 year ago

Hi Jo. Please accept our deepest condolences on behalf of the entire Great Beginnings Byford community and G8 Education. We acknowledge the important and personal relationships our children, families and teams share which is why we will always provide our team members with the time and support they need during a centre community tragedy such as this. Please reach out to familycare@greatbeginnings.com.au if we can provide any further support to you or your family. Warm regards, The G8 Education Team
