Townsville teacher's tips on regional work and living
Early childhood teacher Kylie Ryan of Goodstart Kirwan Golf Links Drive shares her insights.
At Goodstart Canning Vale – Batman Road, we strive to provide an inclusive, safe haven for every child that comes to our centre.
Our diverse team of educators are trained to build reciprocal relationships with your child based on mutual trust, respect and understanding. We recognize parents as the primary caregiver, hence we work hand-in-hand with every family so that every child’s needs are met when they are in our care. Through parent input and collaboration with our local communities, we deliver a responsive holistic play-based, child-centred program for your child to develop as competent and engaged learners.
The learning program offered to children at Batman Road is based on the Australian Early Years Learning Framework to ensure consistent high-quality programs are delivered to every child in order to prepare them for school and life.
There are five specifically designed rooms for children aged 6 weeks old to 5 years in the centre. These rooms are set up according to the children’s developmental milestones and interests. As children explore and experiment in their environment, their learning journey is documented with photos and observations on a platform called Storypark, which is easily accessible at any time.
To provide children with nutritious meals every day, our menu has been thoughtfully put together by Australian nutritionists. With five meals being prepared by our centre cook daily, be rest assured that your hungry munchkin’s appetite is satiated throughout the day!
We look forward to meeting you and your family and working together to provide the best start in life for your child.

Therefore my team and I strive to work in partnership with each family to allow us to provide high quality care catering specifically to the unique needs of your child and family.
My goal as Centre Director is to equip the children that attend our centre with the skills they need not only for school but for life!
I look forward to showing you the amazing work that we do with the children and families at the centre.
