About Goodstart Albany Creek - The Boulevard: 

•  Goodstart Early Learning Albany Creek - The Boulevard is a purpose-built centre with large rooms, wide verandas and three separate playgrounds for children of different ages.  We are located in a residential area and nearby are schools, shops and transport routes.
• The five-room centre offers flexible care routines and quality educational programs which focus on all areas of development such as social/emotional skills, maths, science and nature, language and literacy, music and movement, self-help and independence.
• Our play based, stimulating curriculum is based on the Early Years’ Learning Framework and our rooms – from Nursery to Kindergarten – are all geared with this in mind. We also develop colourful, engaging programs accounting for each child’s individual interests, needs and strengths; and with each step we are ensuring the children are ready to take the big step into schooling.
• Outside, our playground areas are a balance of natural and manmade elements and play surfaces – with sandpits, vege patches, cubby houses, worm farm and lots of shaded space for running. We have carefully designed and planned spaces to encourage a stronger understanding of the environment and sustainability – while giving children the scope to explore, play and let their imaginations roam.
• In October 2015 we participated in our Assessment and Rating visit and were thrilled to receive an Exceeding rating.
