At Sanctuary Early Learning Adventure, we believe that learning should be an adventure—one that nurtures curiosity, fosters independence, and builds a strong foundation for lifelong learning. As a family-owned early childhood education provider, we are proud to offer exceptional care and education across our centres in Ashmore, Southport, Maudsland, Buderim, Redlynch, and Highfields.
Our approach is guided by our core values: Connection, Collaboration, Inclusion, and Respect. These principles shape our daily practices, creating a warm and inclusive environment where every child feels valued, safe and inspired to explore.
Are you looking to enrol your child in their first early learning centre? Perhaps you’re relocating to the Gold Coast or a different location in South East Queensland? Or maybe you are not content with their current centre? Well, if you’re searching for a centre that places the health and wellbeing of your child first; one that emphasises the importance of developing life skills, creativity, and an inherent understanding of—and caring for—sustainability; you’ve come to the right place!
Sanctuary Early Learning Adventure is a privately owned and operated group of early learning centres throughout Gold Coast and Queensland. We currently have centres in Highfields , Redlynch and Buderim. We also have 3 more centres on the Gold Coast, including Ashmore, Maudsland and Southport. For children from six weeks old to school age, we’ll take care of your little ones and help them develop into amazing young people!
There is nothing more important than the health and wellbeing of your child. That’s why we encourage participation in sports, mindfulness activities, yoga and learning about healthy eating.
Music, dance, art—we believe children need to be free to express themselves through creative outlets. Throughout the year you’ll also have the ability to join in on this journey!
We’re all about developing well-rounded life skills in each of our children. That’s why we run initiatives like our Junior Chefs Program and the Gardening Club. Learning can and should be fun!
Aside from the Early Years Learning Framework (EYLF) and the Queensland Kindergarten Learning Guidelines, we also adopt STEAM—a curriculum based on science, tech, engineering, the arts and maths.
We encourage connection to our natural world through instilling sustainability habits into our children at a young age. At our centres they’ll get to explore nature and wildlife, recycling and lots more.
