25.01.2022 Thursday 30 July is National Friendship Day. At Goodstart Centennial Way we believe that a sense of belonging begins with friendship. We implement the key educator approach and ensure meaningful relationships are being built. We love the friendship you and your families offer to the centre.

25.01.2022 At the 11th hour of the 11th day the the 11th month the guns of World War I fell silent. Every year since this date and time we acknowledge the courage and sacrifice made during World War I of those who served their country and sacrificed their lives and to those service men and women who have done since then also. ~Lest We Forget~

24.01.2022 Active play is the work of children and consists of activities that encourage children to move and have fun. Active play enhances childrens emotional well-being as many children feel calm and relaxed after being very active. Look at all the active games the toddlers were involved in this week! What active activities are you doing on the weekend?

23.01.2022 Friendships are born in a million different ways, and all good friends strive to achieve the same goal: to be a source of love and support. Forming a sense of belonging is essential at our Centre. Last Friday we supported the Pyjama Foundation by coming to Kindy in our PJs. It was a lot of fun and we enjoyed forming positive interactions.

23.01.2022 Wishing our 2020 Kindy Gradation Class the very best of luck today for their first day of Prep.

It doesnt matter whether you bring a plant from a shop, something from your garden or even a sneaky snip from the side of the road it will surely put a smile on the faces of our well-deserving teams!

16.01.2022 They shall grow not old, as we that are left grow old: Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn. At the going down of the sun and in the morning, We will remember them.... On this day we would like to take a moment to commemorate those who put their lives on the line for our freedom. We respect our many families who make sacrifices each and every day. Today is not a day of celebration. There’s no glory in war - it’s a day of gratitude, respect, support, reflection and honour. A day we appreciate the sacrifices made by those who have served in the past and in the present. We say thank you Lest We Forget.

03.01.2022 Hi Goodstart families! As you know the Government announced today that the free childcare package will expire on 12 July and that the CCS system will return from 13 July, along with new transition measures (up until October) to support the sector and parents as they move back to the subsidy. This announcement is a little bit complex so we are working hard to understand what this means for our families and for Goodstart. We will provide an update to our centres and our families later today and over the coming days as we learn more. #5weekstogo!
