Sparkletots幼儿园是新加坡首批引进的儿童保育中心，是政府为增加和加强学龄前儿童教育机会所作努力的一部分。该项目位于Punggol，是一个拥有1000名儿童的乐园，这是一个相对较新的城镇，主要包括刚刚组建家庭的年轻夫妇。

Text description provided by the architects. Sparkletots Preschool is amongst the first mega child care centres to be introduced in Singapore as part of the government’s efforts to increase and enhance education opportunities for pre-schoolers. Home to 1000 children, the development is located in Punggol, a relatively new town characterized largely by young couples just starting their families.

优雅的圆形建筑形式与悬挑的屋顶天篷传达了庇护和保护的形象。落客区位于Edgefield Plains的显著位置，带有大型ETFE(乙烯四氟乙烯)顶棚和主入口，方便和隐蔽的上下车点，并可兼作庆祝活动场所。

The elegant circular building form with an overhanging roof canopy conveys an image of shelter and protection. Prominently located along Edgefield Plains, the grand drop-off with the large ETFE (Ethylene tetrafluoroethylene) canopy and double-volume main entrance allows convenient and sheltered drop-off/pick-up points and doubles up as an event plaza for celebrations.

立面由一系列垂直翼片组成，与可伸缩的通风百叶窗相结合，采用浅色木材，强调与自然的联系。交替的实心板和可伸缩的通风百叶窗的角度设计巧妙，使百叶窗朝向远离西方阳光，并将其最小化。

The facade is composed of a series of vertical fins integrated with operable ventilation louvres in a light timber colour to emphasize the connection with nature. The alternating solid panels and operable ventilation louvres are cleverly angled such that the louvered windows face away from and minimize western sun exposure. 

整个建筑使用的材料和绿色植物散发出温暖和“家”的气氛，既令人兴奋又诱人。从闪闪发光的彩虹色标志中得到启示，色彩的使用被有意用作组织原则和路标，给孩子们一个整体和身临其境的体验。

中央的核心是活动区，包括首层多功能游乐场(餐厅/图书馆/室内剧场)旁边的活动室，以及2层郁郁葱葱的循环用桥梁。

The use of materials and greenery throughout the building exude warmth and a “homely” atmosphere that is both exciting and inviting. Taking hints from the Sparkletots rainbow-coloured logo, the use of colour was deliberately employed as an organizing principle and way-finder to give the children a holistic and immersive experience. The heart of the centre is the central activity area, consisting of the activity rooms adjacent to the multi-purpose Play Arena (Dining Hall/ Library/ Indoor Theatre) on the 1st Storey and the lushly planted 3-Point bridge on the 2nd Storey. 

不同的游乐区和体育活动促进体验和感官学习，并分布在所有楼层。每个游乐区在尺度、质地和与自然环境的关系方面也被设计得不同。一个连续坡道连接了所有三层的活动空间，促进视觉和物理连接。

The various play areas and physical activities promote experiential and sensorial learning and are located across all floors. Each play area is also deliberately designed differently in terms of scale, texture and its relation to the natural environment. A feature continuous ramp connects all the activity spaces across all 3 floors, promoting both visual and physical connections.
