Welcome Back to the Library 2025!
A new year means new opportunities to learn, explore, and, of course, read! Whether you’re diving into assignments, sharpening your study skills, wanting to create something, learn a new skill, or simply looking for your next favourite book, the Library is open and ready to support you. This year, we encourage all students and families to make the most of what the Library has to offer, both in person and online. Opening Hours The Junior Library is open from 8:00am – 3:30pm each day. Families are welcome to come into the Library before and after school to connect with their children, play games, and read together. Families can also sign up for Family Borrowing rights to borrow from the collection - encouraging families to read together. The Secondary Library and Innovation Precinct is open to Secondary Students from 7:30am – 4:30pm Monday to Thursday, and 7:30am – 3:30pm on Fridays. Students can join an extra-curricular club, study, read or engage in the Library activities before and after school. Explore The Online Library Don’t forget that you can access many of the Library resources online. The Library platform is available 24/7, offering eBooks, audiobooks, academic research tools, and helpful study materials. Click here to explore everything on offer and make the most of your reading and research time. Get Involved The Library and Innovation Precinct is a space for curiosity and exploration. Come along to find a space to study or read, connect with others, or get involved in one of the many lunchtime activities. Get creating, learn how to fly a drone or print something using the 3D printers, make something in the sewing and textiles group, paint or invent. There have been some amazing creations made already this term. The Power of Reading Reading isn’t just about completing assignments—it’s a skill that enriches your thinking, expands your imagination, and even helps reduce stress. Studies show that regular reading improves focus, boosts vocabulary, and enhances critical thinking skills. Now is a great time to set a goal to read for at least 10 minutes a day. Read something you enjoy. You might read on the train or car trip home, listen to an audiobook while doing chores, or read before going to bed. Whether you enjoy fantasy, history, thrillers, or non-fiction, there’s always a book waiting for you. Come along to borrow something or ask for a recommendation.
We’re looking forward to another fantastic term in the Library—see you soon!
