SHOUT OUT to Carolyn!
We are very grateful she joined our team end of last year and took on the position as our Assistant Director in February. She is currently working really hard as our Acting Director while Judy, our centre director, is on leave. We are SO grateful she’s solution focused, we also admire her beautiful optimism and warmth. Thank you for everything you do Carolyn!

We are VERY excited to announce the opening of our new outdoor learning environment! This past week the children have been immersed in watching the water trickle down the creek bed, feeling the wind in their hair on the swing, hopping across the stepping stones AND embracing the mud all this rain has given us in our dirt pit.

WE ALL BELONG to a family, a community. We are our unique selves, we are all different, this is what we celebrated for Harmony Week at Goodstart Buderim.
Orange is the colour chosen to represent Harmony Week. Traditionally, orange signifies social communication and meaningful conversations. It also relates to the freedom of ideas and encouragement of mutual respect. There was a sea of orange through our centre this week to show our support for cultural diversity and an inclusive Australia.

Every day, our educators and teachers make hundreds of small decisions that shape a child's confidence, joy and sense of belonging.
We measure impact through research and outcomes — but children experience it in the moments that matter most.
How safe they feel.
How curious they become.
How confident they grow.
This is Goodstart, through the eyes and voices of the children we're here for.
