Built to Last: Quality and Durability
Durability is the most important thing to think about when buying furniture for kids. Our kids' desk and chair sets are made with safe, high-quality materials including sustainably sourced wood and low-VOC coatings. Boori's desks and chairs are built to last, so they can handle the daily wear and tear that comes with having kids.
We also care about the quality of our kids' desk chairs. They come in different heights and are pleasant to sit in, which encourages excellent posture and support. These ergonomic chairs can be adjusted as your child grows, making sure they are comfortable at every stage.

Every child needs a learning space that suits the way they work. That's why Boori has a range of study desks for youngsters, from simple ones to more complex ones. Our assortment includes something for every style and taste, whether your child likes a clean, simple desk or one with plenty of room for creative projects.
There are desks in our kids desk and chair set assortment that come in different sizes, forms, and configurations. This way, you can select the one that works best for your child's room and work space.
Our kids bedroom ideas guide covers planning the layout around a desk.
If you're starting from scratch to design your child's room, think about using our kids study desk with other Boori furniture, such as kids beds to make the room look and work better. A comfy bed and a study place together will make a full space for both relaxing and getting things done.
Comfortable Chairs for Better Posture
It's just as vital to pick the correct desk chair for your child as it is to pick the right desk. A chair that is comfortable can really help your youngster sit up straight and be more comfortable as they study. Boori has kids' desk chairs in a wide range of styles, from traditional wooden chairs to cushioned, adjustable seats that give the best support.
A well-made desk chair for youngsters helps them sit up straight, which puts less stress on their neck and back.
The Natty Study Chair suits primary school children, the Euler Study Chair is a solid timber option that pairs with our timber desks, and the Elite Kids Ergonomic Study Chair uses a breathable mesh back with height adjustment for longer study sessions.
What Is the Right Desk Height for a Child?
The correct desk height allows the child to sit with feet flat on the floor and elbows at approximately 90 degrees when resting forearms on the desk surface. In practice:
- Ages 6–8 (Year 1–2): approximately 52–58cm desk height
- Ages 8–10 (Year 3–5): approximately 58–64cm desk height
- Ages 10–13 (Year 5–7): approximately 64–70cm desk height
- Ages 13+ (secondary school): standard adult desk height of 70–76cm
An adjustable-height desk or chair is the most practical long-term solution, as it accommodates the child through multiple growth stages without needing to be replaced. Boori's ergonomic desk range includes adjustable-height options such as the Ergonomic Desk 100cm, which adjusts across a 52–78cm range. If the desk height is fixed, ensure the chair height can be adjusted so the child is never sitting with feet dangling or hunched over.
Kids Desk and Chair Set for Every Age
Your child's needs change as they become older. We make kids' desks and chairs that can be used in a variety of ways, so they will endure a long time and help your child learn. We have different styles that are perfect for toddlers, school-aged kids, and teens.
The Natty Study Desk is a good starting point for primary school, while our larger desks and adjustable chairs carry secondary school students through to their final years.
Style, Function, and Durability in Every Kids Desk Set
Our range of kids' desks and chairs is both classic and durable. Boori has everything you need, whether you want a kids desk with storage to keep their things organised or a fashionable, comfortable set that helps your child focus. To pull the room together, pair your new desk and chair with matching bookshelves and bookcases and a coordinating kids bed in the same timber finish.

Clever Storage Solutions for an Organised Workspace
Every child's workspace deserves to be clutter-free to foster creativity and concentration. With spacious drawers and adjustable shelves, children can effortlessly organise their stationery, books, and gadgets, paving the way for a streamlined study environment.
The Corindi Desk with Hutch Package adds a hutch above the desk surface for books and stationery, and it works alongside our wider kids storage range when the room needs more than the desk can hold.
Comfortable Chairs for Better Posture
Durability matters when choosing furniture for children because desks and chairs are used every day for homework, drawing, reading and creative projects. Boori kids desks and study chairs are made using sustainably sourced timber and low-VOC finishes designed for long-term family use. Solid timber construction helps furniture handle daily activity while maintaining a timeless appearance as children grow. A well-made study setup should support several stages, from early school activities through to secondary study needs.

Kids' Desk & Chair Sets - FAQs
At what age does a child need a study desk?
Most Australian children benefit from a dedicated study space from around Year 3 (age 8–9), when regular homework and reading tasks begin. Before this, a simple activity table used for drawing and crafts is often enough. From Year 3 onwards, a proper desk with sufficient surface area for books and a laptop, combined with an adjustable chair, sets good habits for posture and concentration.
What is the right desk height for a child?
The correct desk height allows the child to sit with feet flat on the floor and elbows at approximately 90 degrees when resting forearms on the desk. For ages 8–10, that is approximately 58–64cm. For ages 10–13, approximately 64–70cm. For secondary school students, standard adult desk height of 70–76cm. An adjustable-height desk or chair is the most practical long-term solution, accommodating growth without replacement.
What is an ergonomic study chair for kids?
An ergonomic kids study chair is designed to support good posture during focused work. Key features include adjustable seat height (so feet can remain flat on the floor as the child grows), a backrest that supports the natural lumbar curve, a seat depth appropriate for the child's leg length, and ideally armrests at elbow height. A poorly fitted chair encourages slouching, which affects concentration and can cause discomfort during longer study sessions.
Do I need a matching desk and chair set?
Not necessarily — a desk and chair that are well-proportioned to each other matter more than matching aesthetics. However, buying a matching set from the same range simplifies the process: Boori desk-and-chair sets are designed so the chair height, armrest position, and desk surface work together. Matching sets in the same timber finish also look cohesive in the room without extra coordination required.
What is a kids desk with storage?
A kids desk with storage integrates shelving, hutch units, or drawers directly into the desk frame or as an add-on component. This keeps books, stationery, and school supplies within reach without needing a separate bookcase. Boori's Natty and Euler desk ranges include pegboard hutch attachments and drawer units that clip on to keep the workspace organised and clutter-free.
