Commencing in 1955, Alfred Nuttall Kindergarten has established an excellent reputation as a nurturing kindergarten providing an important service in the Fairfield community. Close to public transport, the centre is situated close to and liaises with the Perry Street Child Care Centre so that 4 Year Old Group children can use both facilities (staff are responsible for walking the children between the two centres). The friendly and approachable staff include two highly qualified and experienced teachers with special education training. Enthusiastic and dedicated, they are committed to encouraging each child's uniqueness in an atmosphere of warmth, safety and trust.
The mural is painted on the front wall of the kindergarten, but whenever I have passed by the door has been locked so I could not get any close-up shots nor determine who painted it. It is a bright welcoming mural well-suited to the place it adorns.

How wonderful that it is on a school where children can become accustomed to viewing art! Nice colors and good detail!
ReplyDeletehow inviting and appropriate for kids!! and just plain fun to look at!
ReplyDeleteWhat a nice looking mural.
ReplyDeleteA wonderful looking school and I love the mural!! Sounds as though it not only looks like a great school, but is one! I taught a number of different classes over the years from kindergarten to high school and a good kindergarten helps make the following years much more productive. From what you have written, this would be one of the better ones! Great post as always, Nick! Hope you have a good!

How amazing! Children are lucky as they can see this beautiful mural every day.
ReplyDeleteChildren at play surrounded by greenery under a blue sky, a delightful mural to see at a kindergarten. I've been shooting kindergarten murals too, but here in China they tend to be more cartoonish.
ReplyDeleteA cute and colorful mural!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely mural...
ReplyDeleteWhat memories and associations these kids will grow up with!
ReplyDeleteWonderful environment for the kids!
ReplyDeleteGreat capture of the mural. Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
ReplyDeleteIt's a lovely mural from here. It seems to portray a childhood that we'd wish for all children. Don't you hate it when you can't get access to a subject for a closer look? Can't count the times I've tried to stick my camera through a fence to get a closer/better/clearer picture of something. Even at a distance, you managed to capture the charm of the scene. Thank you, Nick, for continuing to participate in Monday Mural.
ReplyDeleteNeat mural and it's wonderful the school has held such high standards for more than half a century.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun looking mural. It sure looks like something children can enjoy. Thanks for sharing!

ReplyDeleteBright & cheerful Nick ... Great for a kindergarten.
ReplyDeleteIt is both educational and entertaining mural, kids love that, so do we, photo hobbyist. I see these murals a lot in schools, but there is always the iron bars.
