Term 4 Week 6
Last Weeks of Borrowing
As 2023 comes to an end and another fabulous school year finishes. It comes that time again when the stocktake of all the school Library books approaches.
Friday week 7 all library books are due and no further borrowing of any LNPS books for the remainder of the school year.
Reading is very important and to ensure we can offer the same great books again next year, a stocktake takes place. If you have further questions about this please feel free to email me.
Book Series of the Week
Every week in the Tirkandi a new series will be on display to help expose students to all different kinds of books.
Week 6 has a series of the week be an Author of the week. David Walliams has a range of hilarious and engaging stories that can interest a large age group of readers. We have three full boxes of his amazing books and I encourage all readers to dive into the world of David Walliams

Overdue, Lost or Damaged Books
The school library policy for overdue, lost or damaged books is as follows. For a library book that has been overdue / lost for 2 weeks or more or returned damaged, there will be a fee of $15. However, if the book is found or returned you will be reimbursed the full amount. Students will be unable to borrow until the book(s) are returned or the payment is made.
