We have a dyslexic friendly book collection in the library? These books have an orange dot on the spine for easy finding. Most have a special font and paper colour, which is easier on the eyes. These are awesome books for our dyslexic students, as well as everyone else.

You can order books online using the Scholastic Loop or at the school library. Last day for orders is Friday 16th September.
