Shade and shelter for outdoor learning
Cairns Community Early Learning·Cairns, QLD
A shaded outdoor classroom so 90 children can learn outside all year.
Sample content — these campaigns are illustrative examples while we build the site.
The project
In the wet season our outdoor program stops. In the dry season it is too hot by ten in the morning.
A shaded, roofed deck means messy play, story time and nature programs continue whatever the weather.
Educators helped design the space around how the children already use the yard.
