Sparrow Early Learning Butler Centre overview
Welcome to Sparrow Early Learning Butler! We provide education and care for children from birth to 6 years of age in an inclusive and nurturing home-like environment. 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.
Engaging, age-appropriate play spaces are carefully designed to stimulate curiosity, learning and imagination. Educators plan hands-on learning experiences reflective of real life, encouraging learning through meaningful interactions and offering diverse opportunities for strengthening social skills, building self-confidence and developing literacy and numeracy skills.
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. Beautiful outdoor spaces provide further opportunities for imaginative and collaborative play with children delighting in the unstructured open green spaces, climbing equipment and sand pit.
Our wonderful kindergarten program ensures children are supported to develop the language, literacy, numeracy and social skills required for a smooth transition to school.
Our team warmly welcomes your enquiries and we look forward to sharing your child’s early learning journey with you.

Meet Kelly Service Manager at our Childcare Centre, Butler
My name is Kelly, I have been in the childcare industry for over 15 years, I got into childcare when I was very young, and would never look back I really enjoy seeing the children’s faces every day and love having such a big impact on the children and their everyday lives.
I have 3 children of my own they are aged 11,9 and 5 and, on the weekends, I love being able to hang with them and also watch them at their footy and other extracurricular activities.
I believe in allowing children to be themselves within their environment and being able to express how they are feeling and being comfortable to have conversations with their educators.
We allow children to learn within their environments and use their environment to help teach them in the way they feel.
About the curriculum
About the curriculum
“The Sparrow Way combines proven international early learning methods to create a unique and purposefully contemporary practice designed for today’s society. Guided by the principles of Reggio Emilia childcare and underpinned by The Early Years Framework for Australia, we embrace children’s inherent abilities to learn and develop, creating an environment for them to find solutions through exploration, discovery and invention, marveling in everything around them. The Sparrow Way is our method of working with children based on these beliefs and principles.”
- The Sparrow Early Education Team
The Sparrow curriculum is thoughtfully planned by our educators and shaped by the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF). Being guided by the EYLF and National Quality Standards (NQS) ensures we offer high quality learning programs that are responsive to children’s ideas, interests, strengths and abilities.
Programs are play-based, child-driven and inspired by the Reggio Emilia approach with a strong emphasis on nature and outdoor learning experiences. Educators carefully design environments that stimulate curiosity and provide opportunities for hands-on learning experiences that are reflective of real life.
Play is viewed as a powerful tool for children to explore, discover and make meaning of the world around them. Activities are largely open-ended, providing a wide variety of natural resources and materials which stimulate imagination and foster creativity, problem-solving and meaningful interactions with friends and educators.
Children are encouraged to express themselves through various mediums, such as art, music and dramatic play, allowing them to develop a deep sense of autonomy, confidence and joy in their learning journey.
Parent communication and involvement
Parent communication and involvement
The Sparrow team values the role of families as children’s most important teachers and our educators foster positive and collaborative relationships with families. Parents are encouraged to contribute their ideas for programming, learning activities and the overall operation of the service.
Our inclusive open-door policy welcomes parents to visit our service, engage in discussions with educators and participate in children's learning. Our educators maintain open and continuous communication with families, ensuring a strong connection between the children's home learning environment and their educational experiences at the centre. During pick-up and drop-off times, educators are readily available to engage with families and gladly share insights into the children's progress, well-being and participation.
The use of the Storypark communication app provides daily updates, photos, and videos, fostering regular connections between educators and families. Parents also receive frequent communication through emails, newsletters, displays, notices, information evenings, special events, and Facebook.

Sparrow Early Learning centres provide high quality kindy programs led by qualified Early Childhood Teachers. While the curriculum remains play-based, these programs follow a more structured approach to teaching and learning experiences to prepare children for transitioning into a primary school environment. There is a careful balance maintained between child-led and teacher-led learning activities.
Our Early Childhood Teachers cater to the individual needs of each child and in collaboration with parents, ensure that children are adequately equipped with the skills and experience required for a smooth transition to “big school”. Ongoing assessment of children’s progress and development is carefully documented and communicated with families and transition statements can be shared with future schools to facilitate a smooth transition to school.
Attending kindy at their familiar Sparrow Early Learning centre makes the transition from the long day care setting less intimidating and children can continue their early learning journey in a safe and familiar environment, surrounded by friends and familiar educators. It also means families can enjoy the flexibility of extended care hours and continued care during school holiday periods. All meals and snacks are provided, adding to the convenience for busy families.

Dear Samantha, thank you for your kind words! It's great to hear that both of your daughters are getting along so well with our educators. We know how difficult it can be for children to transition into a new environment, so we are glad that they have felt comfortable enough to feel excited when they get to come to our centre. Our educators strive to create a safe, nurturing community and we are so glad they are doing that for your family. We appreciate you taking the time to share your positive experience and look forward to seeing the girls at the centre. Thank you again!
