What do the Oppia play environments look and feel like:

Here at Oppia we work hard to ensure that our environments are reflective of our mission and values, and you will find:

  • Resources that are ethically sourced and open ended in their outcomes (with a strong focus on upcycling, repurposing and recycling)
  • Colour and sensory rich environments that engage all the senses through – smells, wall textures, live plants, comfortable lighting, interesting soft furnishings and appropriate noise levels.
  • Room set ups with clearly defined learning spaces that encourage individual, small group and large group participation
  • Visually rich learning with layered experiences to entice the children to participate
  • Age and stage appropriate equipment for the developmental needs of each child
  • Evidence of partnerships and ongoing collaborations between the children, staff and families
