Junior School

Students and their parents eagerly visit our Junior School Library for a variety of reasons. They may be borrowing books to read for recreation, support their classroom reading program, find answers to questions, explore personal interests and borrow books written by their favourite authors. Students also spend time in the library using the resources to research into PYP Units of Inquiry.

Many students participate in the Premier’s Reading Challenge which is supported by our well-resourced library.

Students also enjoy visiting the library during their lunch break to read, research, play board games, do puzzles, make things and borrow and return books. Year 6 students also can become a library monitor and assist in making the library facilities available to students at lunch time.

The library has a Media Room and this provides another rich learning space.

We are very grateful for the support of library staff and volunteers in such a busy and vibrant part of our Junior School.
