The project has three major functions:

• Early childhood centre for 100 children
• Family/Community centre
• Headquarters for the Kindergarten organisation

Each of the three functions has its own pavilion. These pavilions are arranged to create different outdoor areas such as a quiet garden, children's outdoor play area and a food garden, all of which relate directly to the function of each pavilion.

The building design includes a number of sustainable features:

• Natural heating and cooling with underfloor heating back up
• Double glazing and "ultra" thermal insulation
• Rainwater storage for toilets, laundry, car wash and garden irrigation
• Solar PV panels to generate electricity
• Predominant timber construction (renewable resource)
• These features are clearly expressed in the architecture so they become a learning tool for the children and their families.
