Goodstart Boonah - Childcare Centre

Goodstart Boonah is a rural centre situated in the outskirts of Boonah, in the Scenic Rim Shire. It can be found at the lower end of Church Street, close to all community conveniences as well as local schools and shops.

This is made simpler through our intuitive Storypark platform, which enables us to maintain consistent and clear communications with families.

Outside, our playground areas are a balance of natural and manmade elements and play surfaces – with chicken coop, swings, sandpits, dirt pits, natural gardens, a stage, verandahs, vege patch and sustainability areas. 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. Our centre takes pride in providing a Sun Smart environment and is accredited through the Cancer Council. Community is also important to us and through visits to the …
