Our Library and Learning Resource Centre which is open from 8.30am – 4.00pm Monday to Friday is a dedicated space for all members of our school community.
We have created a friendly and welcoming environment for students to access a range of resources to support their learning both inside and outside of the classroom. We aim to create confident, enthusiastic readers who go on to develop a lifelong love of reading. As a student you will automatically be enrolled as a member, so there is no need to join. Why not pay us a visit to:
- Complete your homework or do some research using our range of books or our suite of computers.
- Purchase stationery.
- Borrow a fiction or non-fiction book.
- Browse our themed book displays.
- Find out about book sales, competitions and other exciting events.
We have books to help with your studies and exams, to help you decide what to do when you leave school and lots of books just to enjoy. You can find out what is in the library by checking our library catalogue. If there are books you need that we do not have, these can be requested.
We also have our very own eBook library! Students can access the eLibrary anywhere, anytime and on multiple devices. A wonderful way to ensure you’re never without a book and so many other fantastic benefits!
Our how to access the library catalogue guide offers some step by step pointers to help you use the library catalogue. If you have any further questions please speak to one of our friendly library staff.
