Goodstart Early Learning Bentleigh East South Road recognises the importance of early childhood education and wishes to continue fostering equality and equity so that all children, including Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children, have access to high quality education. We continue to develop stronger relationships within the First Nations community, respectfully draw upon the knowledge and histories of the Boonwurrung Nation and provide a service that works towards reconciliation, focusing on equality, equity and respect. We build respectful and trusting relationships and devise policies, practices and programs for all children that are inclusive of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander children, families, educators and our community.
