About Sparrow Early Learning Bunyip

At Sparrow Early Learning Bunyip, we create a safe and friendly atmosphere where children are welcomed as individuals and feel a sense of belonging. Here, we strive to establish trusting and respectful relationships through the inclusion of cultural diversity and acceptance. Read more.

Families are encouraged to be involved with all aspects of our service including policy review, menus and children’s learning through Storypark.

Inspired by Reggio Emilia philosophy and guided by the Early Years Learning Framework, our educators provide a holistic, play-based curriculum with a strong emphasis on nature and outdoor learning experiences. We celebrate each child as unique and our dedicated educators focus programming on meeting the individual needs and interests of each child.

Indoor learning spaces feel just like home and are filled with materials and resources that come straight from nature and everyday life. Activities are largely open-ended to allow children to follow their interests, use their imagination and stimulate social interactions with their peers and educators.

Engaging outdoor spaces provide further opportunities for imaginative and collaborative play, with children enjoying the unstructured open green spaces, quiet shady areas, sandpits and climbing equipment.

We look forward to showing you around our service!

Service Manager at Sparrow Early Learning Bunyip

“There is no greater feeling than assisting a child along with their family to develop their life skills, whether mentally, emotionally or physically – it is a brilliant sensation watching them grow as individuals.” Read more.

I am a community member local to Bunyip along with my small family of 4. So I am completely honoured to be in the role at Sparrow Early Learning Bunyip and I believe in establishing strong, positive, quality relationships with all educators, families, children and making strong lasting partnership in our community.

You will start to see our educators, children and families on regular excursions into our community for regular parks, bush walks, picnics outdoors and exploring our beautiful town of Bunyip.

We would love for you to come in and meet us, see our wonderful centre and come on a tour around the service where you will have the opportunity to meet with the educators.

On behalf of our dedicated team, we welcome your enquiries and look forward to sharing your children’s Early Learning Journey with you.
