Library

The library is open from 8.00am to 4.00pm during the school year. We are open at recess and lunch for students to read, play games, or catch up on schoolwork.

Resources available in the library include:

  • A wide range of both fiction and non-fiction books that can be borrowed by students and staff.
  • Study booths for group work, comfortable seating for reading.
  • Access to computers for research and schoolwork.
  • Board games, card games, and puzzles for students to use, including a giant outdoor chess game.
  • A subscription to Wheelers ePlatform – a collection of eBooks and audiobooks for school age kids.
  • A subscription to WorldBook Online to assist students with their research needs.

The library staff aim to work collaboratively with subject teachers in order to:

  • promote the centre as a source of materials for leisure activities and educational purposes.
  • actively support the educational aims and programs of the school
  • foster positive attitudes toward learning
