Together, we’re building a safe, welcoming, and inclusive environment for children to learn and thrive.

The East Lismore Community Preschool is a special project for ThomsonAdsett, designed to provide a safe and nurturing learning environment for children in the aftermath of the devastating 2022 floods.

The primary focus of the project is on creating a space that encourages play and exploration, while also ensuring the safety and comfort of the children.

ThomsonAdsett has been engaged to design the new school inline with the NSW Childcare Planning Guidelines for funding. Future flooding mitigation is a critical consideration. The preschool is located in the heart of the community and has 2 main playrooms, accommodating 25 children each.

Further design characteristics provide safe play areas and the ability to engage with the outdoors whilst protected from the subtropical humidity and ample rainfall that characterises this area. Accessibility ramps and soundproof sensory rooms have also been incorporated into the design.

This project represents an opportunity to create a lasting legacy for the community, and we are committed to delivering a beautiful and functional space that meets the needs of the children and the community.
