A little bit about us At Sparkways, we believe that every child deserves a strong foundation for lifelong success.

Our mission is to provide high-quality early childhood education that sparks curiosity, creativity, and a love of learning in young children.

We are here to spark change

Child safety and inclusiveness Sparkways and all our Centres are committed to child safety. The protection and wellbeing of children and young persons is reflected in our zero tolerance for child abuse. All staff and volunteers have a moral and legal responsibility to ensure that young people are safe whilst involved in our care and programs. All children have the right to safety and security and the protection from physical, emotional, verbal, and sexual abuse and neglect.

Sparkways is a child safe and equal employment opportunity employer. We encourage applications from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples, from people from culturally and linguistically diverse backgrounds and from people with a disability.
