Library News
Welcome Back to Term 3!
There is alot happening in the library during the mid-winter months. Students are coming to the library to enjoy their break times in a warm and happy space and are spending time with fellow friends and seniors reading, writing, playing card games, preparing for competitions and doing jigsaw puzzles. Sometimes teachers are also enjoying spending time with the students.
