The role of childcare supporting activities is clearly stated in the 2009 Guidelines for nursery school and kindergarten, and carers are expected to have corresponding capabilities. In this changing environment, how to offer teacher-trainees good learning opportunities has become one of the issues at carer training schools. Our school opened a "Toy Library" in 1998, as a part of community childcare service program for non-schooled children and their parents. And in 2008, we set up a "Gathering Place" in the library and started a full-scale childcare supporting activities as a part of Kurume City's childcare supporting program. In this paper, we will first report the activities, and then clarify some of the problems seen from the trainers' point of view. Finally, we will state the significance of childcare supporting activities at training schools as we strive for more effective activity programs.
