Facilities

Indoor Rooms….

 sTarralla Kindergarten’s indoor area features three fully equipped rooms to meet the needs of our 3yo and 4yo groups.

All three of our rooms have large carpeted areas for teachers and children to share stories, play games, do jigsaws and celebrate milestones together.

Each room also has a home corner, that rotates depending on the interests of the children at the time – home, restaurant, school, shop – the rooms are updated to match the interests and discussion topics of the groups.

Our painting easels, pasting tables and playdough are always favourites with the children.

The bright open spaces in the rooms provide lots of natural light which allows for a perfect learning environment.

Once you move through the entrance area, there is a colourful foyer and locker area, which lead into the spacious rooms. Our rooms may change throughout the year in the way they are set up, depending on the program and interest area of the children at the time. We provide children with opportunities to explore their learning environment with open-ended play as well as structured play spaces.

There are also well-equipped craft corners, with plenty of materials, textures and colours for children to let their imaginations run free.

The children’s toilets allow easy access and also have warm water for hand washing.

Outdoor Area….

Our outdoor learning space was upgraded in 2010, extended in 2016 and upgraded again in 2017.

In 2023, a major redevelopment of the outdoor learning space occurred and now incorporates more of a natural learning environment, as well as more open-ended play spaces for children to explore their own play ideas.

Tarralla Kindergarten’s outdoor play area has so many features and stimulation for children with all kinds of interests.

There is tan barked zone for swings and climbing frames to develop confidence and motor skills in a safe environment.

The kindergarten also features a bike path down the centre with a loop, for children to ride the trikes round the play area.  The real, working traffic light is a highlight for many children – queuing up waiting for the light to turn green.

The play area includes a grassed area for free play and ball sports, or for sitting on and enjoying lunch outside under the shade of the gum trees.

Tarralla Kindergarten has a large covered sandpit, complete with its own water tank to supply water for sandy creations and sand play.

One of the most popular features of Tarralla’s outdoor learning space is the big blue water pump that takes water from the water tank and provides children with water for water play and for filling the creek bed.

The creek-bed also features a mini wooden bridge to cross over the creek.

A child’s imagination can be transformed into reality in this great outdoor space.
