Furniture for classrooms, libraries and staff rooms
Tables, chairs and storage from early learning to high school, supplied across Australia.
One table, many layouts
One set of tables, rearranged for each lesson.
Four quarter pieces close into one round table
A 750 mm quarter-circle piece joins two runs of tables at a right angle. Four close into a full circle; two make a half circle against a wall. The Half Round Activity Table makes it in one piece.
V-shaped tops fan out and leave the floor open
Four V-shaped tops set point to point make a ring with an open floor in the middle, so the class can stand up and move. Push two together and the same tops run as a long bench down one wall.
Curved tops that join into one big work surface
The Puzzle Collaborative Table has a curved top, so four of them lock together into a flower for a whole-class build, then pull apart into four small tables when the lesson changes. Nothing has to be carried out of the room.
Colours that set the mood
The same tables and chairs, in two colour schemes. Soft greys and blues settle a room down and can help a class stay calm; red, blue, green and yellow lift it and cheer them up. Slide across to compare, then choose the top colour and the seat colour when you order.
Shop classroom tables
Furniture for every school level
From first classrooms to senior years, the right furniture changes as children grow. Start with the level you are fitting out.
Early learning
Low tables and small stackable chairs sized for little ones, with soft seating for story time and open storage children can reach themselves.
Primary school
Shaped group tables that fit together for teamwork, chairs sized for primary-age children, and storage for books and bags. Rearrange the room as the lesson changes.
High school
Sturdy student tables and full-size chairs for longer lessons. Line them up in rows or bring them together for group work.
What size chair and table for what age
Match the chair to the student's height, not their age. The Australian standard AS/NZS 4610:2020 sets eight sizes, A to H, and each one has a seat height and a table height to go with it. Find the student's height in the table below and read across; the age column is a guide, worked out from the average height of Australian children.
| Size | Age guide | Student height | Seat height | Table height |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| A | Under 2 | 80–95 cm | 210 mm | 400 mm |
| B | 2 to 4 | 93–116 cm | 260 mm | 465 mm |
| C | 5 to 7 | 108–121 cm | 310 mm | 525 mm |
| D | Between 5–7 and 8–11 | 119–142 cm | 350 mm | 585 mm |
| E | 8 to 11 | 133–159 cm | 380 mm | 635 mm |
| F | 12 to 15, and girls 16 to 17 | 146–177 cm | 430 mm | 705 mm |
| G | Boys 16 to 17 | 159–188 cm | 460 mm | 755 mm |
| H | Taller than the average 17-year-old | 174–207 cm | 510 mm | 815 mm |
Size D has no single age band: the average height for ages 5–7 falls in size C and for ages 8–11 in size E. Go by the student’s height.
Not sure which size? Stand the student against a wall with their shoes off and measure from the floor to the top of their head. That is the height the table uses.
The guide allows ±10 mm on chair heights and ±15 mm on table heights.
Reading corners that suit a whole class
A curved ottoman lets a group sit along it without lining up in a row, and round ottomans fill the corners.
The kidney ottoman gives 1800 mm of curved seat, so a group sits along it facing each other instead of in a row. The round ones are 500 mm across — light enough to push into a corner, or pull out when one more child wants to sit down. The two-seater takes a reading pair. You choose the colour when you order.
The quiet end of the library, for work that needs a desk
Shared benches seat four facing each other, with a desk screen down the middle so nobody looks straight up at the person opposite.
The Pod chair tucks right under the bench, so the walkway stays clear when the seats are empty. A Merri Ribbon counter gives the librarian a desk facing the room.
What a staff room needs when teachers share desks
Desks that group together for shared planning, with open shelving behind for class sets and folders, and the Bolt chair, mesh back and headrest, is the one to be in through a marking afternoon.
