Greenwood Preschool wanted a reading corner their youngest pupils could use on their own, so we built a low shelf sized just for them.

PROJECT WITH DESCRIPTION EXAMPLE
A low shelf built for the smallest readers at Greenwood Preschool.
Greenwood Preschool in Claremont asked us for something their three and four year olds could reach by themselves.
Thandi Ngcobo chose a low, rounded unit with wide trays at the front for picture books.
We filled it with board books and early readers, chosen for a mixed group of ages.
What the teachers asked for
Something sturdy for daily use. We call in each term to swap worn copies for new titles.
FAQs
How this can be done for me?
Come in and tell us about the preschool, creche or home you have in mind. We will help you pick a size, a height and a first set of books to fill it.
Which books go on first?
Start with board books and picture books at the front, where little hands can reach. As your child grows we swap in early readers and move the picture books along.
Porta nec aenean pellentesqu
We can build the shelf to fit a corner, a hallway or under a window. Bring us your measurements and a photo of the space and we will work out what fits.
Do you deliver it?
Yes. We deliver and fit the shelf ourselves in Cape Town and the southern suburbs. Outside that area we can arrange courier delivery and send simple instructions for putting it up.
TACITIRS LOBORTIS
Solid pine, sanded smooth and rounded at every corner for safety.
SOLID PINE
We build every shelf from solid pine so it can last for years.
QUICK TURNAROUND
Most shelves are measured, built and ready within about two weeks.
ADJUSTABLE SHELVES
Shelf heights can be adjusted as your child grows taller.
