77 Carson Terrace, Geraldton WA 6530

BRAND-NEW 54-PLACE EARLY LEARNING CENTRE

A RARE OPPORTUNITY FOR NEW OR ESTABLISHED OPERATORS TO ENTER OR EXPAND IN GERALDTON

77 Carson Terrace, Geraldton | Opposite Maitland Park | Completion Q2 2027

Harrper Projects is seeking expressions of interest from experienced Early Learning operators, new market entrants and established operators looking to expand their Geraldton footprint for this brand-new, purpose-built 54-place Early Learning Centre.

WHY GERALDTON? — THE NUMBERS TELL THE STORY
Independent August 2026 AreaSearch research identifies a significant childcare supply imbalance within the surrounding catchment:

9,149 residents within the 2km catchment = 8.0% growth since 2021
548 children under 5 currently living within the catchment
Under-5 population has grown approximately 25% since the previous Census
Under-5 population forecast to grow a further 32% by 2041, to approximately 726 children
Only 120 existing LDC places across 2 centres
Current ratio of approximately 4.6 children under 5 per LDC/PSK place
39 additional places forecast to be required to maintain today's supply ratio through to 2041
147 additional LDC places identified as required to match the Australian supply ratio

AreaSearch concludes that childcare supply in the catchment is well below average, with constrained provision for children under five.

A STRATEGIC EDUCATION & FAMILY LOCATION
The centre is positioned on Carson Terrace, directly opposite Maitland Park, and within Geraldton's established education precinct.

The surrounding catchment includes 11 schools accommodating 4,590 students, including:
Geraldton Primary School
St Francis Xavier Primary School
Nagle Catholic College
Geraldton Senior High School
Holland Street School

The area provides 50.2 school places per 100 residents, compared with just 15.9 across Regional WA, highlighting Geraldton's role as a significant education hub that attracts families and students from the broader region.
