Text description provided by the architects. The project brief was to craft a unique early childhood centre that would inspire children to develop confidence and humility through a sense of community. A detailed site analysis looked at possible locations for the building within the school. Access and car parking requirements indicated the optimal location, further reinforced by the extensive bush-lined outlook on three sides.
