We would like to thank the community for the contributions that have been made to improve the Library of St Bede collection. The generosity to this cause, which we see as so worthwhile, has been fantastic, showing that we are not alone in our quest to inspire our young men to read. 

As a result of the community response to this appeal we can report that over 300 new high interest books will be added to the collection in short order, books which our Librarian Mrs Chrissie Walker, can use to promote reading within the College. 

We would welcome any further contributions wherever and whenever possible up until the end of the term when the appeal will officially end. Cash or book contributions can be made through this website - https://www.alltextbooks.nz/category/Donate-St-Bedes-College

Again, our heartfelt thanks for all the contributions thus far. Each and every donation is greatly appreciated and adds to our ability to improve both reading ability and interest within the College.
