About Sparrow Early Learning Centre Karana Downs

Sparrow Early Learning Karana Downs is a beautiful 67 place centre offering 4 Reggio Emilia inspired rooms. We offer care for children from the age of 6 weeks to 5 years with a warm, nurturing space for them to learn and grow. Read more.

Each of our play spaces are set up specifically to cater to the individual needs of the children, and their developmental stages.
For instance, you will see in our infants room that resources (eg mirrors are placed low to the ground to help support your baby’s development and growing curiosity).

Whereas in our toddler and Pre Kindy rooms, we have resources at a higher level and in scenarios to encourage open-ended and loose-parts play. Our Kindergarten environment is specifically tailored to support our children in their transition to prep.

Our centre is located in a quiet street amongst local shops and a golf course.

Our Educators are passionate about creating a unique environment where each child and their families have a sense of belonging within our Sparrow family.
