Students visiting our library.
Each week every grade visits for a session, where the teacher will discuss aspects of the library, selected books, a particular author or read to the students. The students will have time to browse the books and choose a book to borrow.
There are tables and chairs set up for students to read, write, draw and discuss, or they can sit back on a comfy cushion for quiet reading.
Every Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday the library is open for the first half of lunch for Movie Club.
Borrowing books.
The students are able to borrow or renew a book for 7 days. Books need to be returned onto the system before any more borrowing can be undertaken. Older grade levels are permitted to borrow 2 books. Students can also borrow books to keep in their classroom book boxes, these books stay in the classroom with an understanding that they do not go home. Often, the Library will provide books for Topics being covered at a grade level and books being used for an Author Study.
Care for our books.
We encourage the students to take care of the books so others can enjoy them. To look after our library books, Junior grades must have a library bag.
The library is constantly updating its most precious resource – its wonderful books, to ensure it maintains a modern, engaging collection.
Our library is a calm, friendly, welcoming space for all students to enjoy their visit.
