Bira Bira Early Learning Centre overview
At Bira Bira Early Learning Centre, we believe that children have many different ways of living, learning and knowing. Our program takes inspiration from the Educational Project of Reggio Emilia, and we recognise children as protagonists of their knowledge. We believe they learn through many modes of expression, communication and understanding.
We foster warm and responsive relationships between children and educators to support each child’s sense of identity and wellbeing. We accept and embrace diversity and value inclusion, and we recognise and respect Aboriginal cultures and their unique place in the heritage and future of our country.
Our program lays the foundation for children to become responsible citizens of the world by supporting them to become environmentally responsible and to show respect and empathy for the world around them. Our program will teach children to learn about growing foods, conservation and harvesting and introduce a sustainable approach to recycling.
Our ELC staff embrace excellence, contemporary practices and foster collaboration between and with children, families and colleagues. We are committed to providing an environment and culture of lifelong learning where children can maximise their full potential.

Our child has just completed his 1st year as a 3yo at Bira and we are thrilled with how his year has gone.... Our child has just completed his 1st year as a 3yo at Bira and we are thrilled with how his year has gone. It took us a long time to find a daycare that we thought would suit our son, and are very happy we went with Bira Bira. The staff dedicate themselves to creating a space that is safe and engaging for children, and go that extra mile with feedback and special events. On top of that, the environment and spaces are inviting and well resourced; I particularly love the library space & that the children eat together in a proper dining room. I’ve recommended Bira to many friends and wish the staff and centre every success Read more

Honestly couldn’t imagine taking my child anywhere else. Bira Bira has been such a supportive environment and it’s really more like a family than a childcare centre. There is complete transparency with decision making and feedback and I’m honestly scared for school years after such high standards have been set. Every single educator knows our family by name and they care more than they would if it was just a job to them. Our child has thrived in their care - to the point that if childcare was available on the weekend, our little one would 1000% want to be there. Aside from the care, the facility itself is second to none. I’ve never seen a centre that looks like this one. It’s like walking into a resort… but for kids. We love it here and our child loves it more than we do - which speaks volumes of the centre. Thank you for being so amazing. Read more

Our two sons are both full time, one being in the pre-kinder room and one in 4 year old kinder. Every day the educators upload really in depth stories of the days teachings, paired with lots of photos that we will cherish forever. The in house chef also gives a daily update of the menu, which the kids always enjoy. The whole centre takes the curriculum very seriously, whilst making it fun and enjoyable for the children. I am amazed by the thoughtfulness of the educators and their passion for teaching. Bira Bira isn't just a daycare. It's a community where parents can feel comfortable leaving their children knowing they are learning, happy, and are in very safe hands. We can't thank Bira Bira enough for such a beautiful pre-school journey. Read more
