At Goodstart Early Learning Barkly Street, we envision a learning community that honours and celebrates the enduring cultures of First Nations peoples. Guided by our deep respect for Wurundjeri WoiWurrung peoples - Traditional Owners and Custodians of the Land on which we learn and grow we commit to building and maintaining respectful relationships with local Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander communities. We are committed to fostering a future where children develop a strong commitment to reconciliation. We strive to nurture understanding, respect, and pride in the world's oldest living cultures, ensuring that the wisdom of Elders past, present and emerging continues to shape generations to come.Â
