Welcome to Goodstart Early Learning Mill Park - Centenary Drive! Our establishment is located in the outer suburbs of Melbourne, Australia, and is conveniently situated near many new housing estates. With public transport access at our doorstep and close proximity to Westfield shopping centre and several new schools, we offer a convenient location for families in the area.

At Goodstart Mill Park - Centenary Drive, our team of dedicated and experienced educators and carers strive to provide a fun and play-based learning program that gives children a great start to their education. Our rooms, from Nursery to Kindergarten/Preschool, are set up in line with the Early Years Learning Framework, offering sensory and play-based learning opportunities. We create colorful and stimulating environments to foster growth and development, ensuring children are ready for their transition to school.

Our outdoor play spaces and equipment are designed to enhance children's awareness of their surroundings and the importance of sustainability. With sandpits, tan bark floors, a stage, a vegetable patch, and a compost area, children have ample opportunities to explore and learn about the environment.

In addition to our excellent facilities, we have a separate music and movement room and an art room, offering children a variety of enriching experiences. Our qualified cook prepares fresh, healthy, and nutritious meals for the children each day, including breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, and a late snack.

We believe in the power of community engagement to enrich children's learning experiences. Through visits to the center, excursions, and participation in community events, we deepen the relationship between the center and the community, while teaching children about being active and contributing members of society.

We also value family involvement and host special days such as Mother's Day, Father's Day, Grandparent's Day, Christmas Party, and Kinder Graduation Day, where families are invited to join in the experience. We believe that by working collaboratively with families, we can support each child's development and parenting style.

As the Centre Director, I am committed to providing a safe, nurturing, and inclusive environment for all children and families. With my experience in the early learning and child care sectors, I understand the importance of play-based learning and extending on children's interests. Alongside our highly qualified and passionate team, I am dedicated to giving children the highest quality learning experiences.

We offer a large car park located at the top of the driveway, including wheelchair parking, for your convenience. The entrance to the car park is off Centenary Drive in Mill Park.
