The Resource Centre consists of a library, computer lab, as well as a teachers' resource room.
Children may borrow picture books, fiction books and non-fiction books to support research and a love of reading.
Our library Teacher-Aide, Mel Buttigieg is available to assist students, staff and parents to borrow resources or access information.

Borrowing Guidelines

Year level borrowing limits
- Prep to Year 3 may borrow a maximum of 1 book per week in their allocated class time
- Year 4 to Year 6 may borrow a maximum of 2 book per week in their allocated class time
Lost or damaged library resources have to be paid for or replaced.
Book club
The library runs a Scholastic Book club twice a term to encourage the love of reading. You may either pay online or drop the money into the book club box at the library.
Book fair
This event is held twice a year to provide students and parents with the opportunity to purchase quality books at reasonable prices. It is also beneficial for the library as the school receives a commission on the total sale amount of books purchased. Further resources are then purchased for the library.
Book week
This event is held once a year to allow students to explore their imagination and love of literacy with a different theme each year. Students come dressed in a costume of their choice and participate in a whole school parade. The library is also decorated to that theme and students' artwork is displayed in the library. Parents may also come into the library that week to view the display.
