Library News

Readers for Life

The Library is the focal point of the school where children are encouraged to develop a love of books and incorporate technology into their research.

As children learn to use the school library and borrow regularly they will become readers for life.

We ask parents/carers to help the school by encouraging their child to develop their enjoyment of reading by:

  • being regular borrowers
  • caring for their library books by having a library bag and
  • handling books carefully. A cloth bag is preferable.

Parents/Carers are encouraged to:

  • visit the library with their children and to discuss their borrowing with the Teacher-Librarian and their Class Teacher.
  • be aware of their children's interest in literature and encourage them to be readers and library users.
