Library

Book Club

Book Club Brochures are sent home twice a term. Students and their families can purchase books via the online LOOP payment or via payments to our office.

Book Fair

Every year, during Term 3 our library celebrates the Children's Book Council of Australia's Book Week. There is a Book Fair which runs for a week. It sells books and funky stationery. During the Book Week our students dress up as their favourite book character.

Premier's Reading Challenge (PRC)

The Challenge aims to encourage a love of reading for leisure and pleasure in students, and to enable them to experience quality literature. It is not a competition but a challenge to each student to read, to read more and to read more widely.

Student's complete this independently.

Technology

The library is very lucky to have iPads, Chromebooks and desktop computers. Students are able to use the computers during both school breaks, as well as, in library lessons. 

Oliver

Oliver is the new circulation (borrowing) system in the library. It is an interactive site that students can access at home via their Student DoE Portal. Oliver can be downloaded as an app, allowing students and their families to see what is available at our library and also their borrowing list.
