Please come and make yourself welcome in our beautiful library, housed in the lower level of McDermott Place. It is a favourite place in the school, for adults and children alike. Whether you\u2019re hunting for the latest information about dinosaurs, or you just want a quiet place to read a book, the library is the place to be. Weekly library lessons are a highlight of the school week, enjoyed by our students from 3 Day Preschool to Year 2. Children borrow books to take home every week and are introduced to a wide range of literary genres over their time at the school. Parents are also invited to access the library collection or reference books from our parent bookshelf.<\/p>\n
