Goodstart Early Learning Kingaroy

16/11/2025

From January 2026, all Australian families eligible for CCS will be guaranteed at least 3 days a week (72 hours per fortnight) of subsidised early childhood education and care.

This landmark change — the 3 Day Guarantee — replaces the Child Care Subsidy Activity Test and means:
✅ Eligible families can save thousands each year
✅ Every child can access vital early learning opportunities
✅ Certainty for families who are working, studying, or looking for work
✅ Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander families receive 100 hours per fortnight (up to 5 days a week)

At Goodstart, we believe all children deserve the best possible start in life with quality early learning at the heart of what we do. We’re here to help families make the most of these new changes.

👀 You may have already spotted Goodstart's 'What and When For Families' guide in centre with copies available in each room and at reception.

And from 2026, every enrolled child will also receive a guide in their welcome pack.

The What and When is designed especially for families to support children's learning at home.

We know that learning doesn't stop at the centre gate – it happens everywhere. This guide provides simple ways to build on the learning your child is doing with us, covering areas such as communication and language, creativity, problem-solving, and physical development.

Because when we work in partnership, children thrive. 💛

Preparing children for school is about more than learning numbers and letters 🧠 It's about building the skills and confidence to take on challenges, big and small.

One of the most powerful of these is resilience – the ability to bounce back, adapt, and keep trying when things don't go to plan.

Resilience is not only crucial for the early years; it's a skill children will carry with them into primary school, secondary school, and throughout their lives.

Our programs encourage children to:
🍎 Have a go – taking safe risks and trying again helps build resilience and confidence.
🍎 Think critically – learning how to question, problem-solve and explore.
🍎 Be active learners – engaging all their senses and staying curious.
🍎 Use imagination and creativity – developing new ideas and possibilities.
🍎 Consolidate in depth – taking time to practice, reflect, and build on what they've learnt.

By nurturing these characteristics of effective learning, we help children develop persistence, resilience, and a love of learning that carries them into school and beyond. 💛
