Library News

It has been great to welcome the children back into the library, and see so many keen readers this year! We look forward to encouraging their love of reading.

You will have seen the Scholastic Book Club brochures earlier this week. Please note that the cut off for ordering from this issue is 11th February.

We would also like to remind parents and carers of the rules related to library borrowing.

• Children are required to have a library bag when they come to the library.
• Students may borrow up to 5 books per week. (Preps can borrow 2)
• Please keep drink bottles on the outside pocket of the school bags. 
• All books are borrowed out for a period of two weeks.  If your child needs more time, please ensure they re-borrow the book. They may be returned any time during the two weeks, not just on their library day.
• Books are to be returned to the library trolley in your child’s grade first thing in the morning.
• Overdue notices are sent home every few weeks.
• The Library is open 10 minutes before school for borrowing.

All year levels have one library session per week.

St Louis Library has an extensive range of books for your children to read. Please encourage them to make use of the wonderful resources provided by the school.

PARENT LIBRARY

The Library offers a small collection of books for parents to borrow that relate to the development of your child.  Some of the titles include the topics of resilience, good health and nutrition, family meetings, sibling rivalry, discipline, sex education etc.  Please feel free to ask us in the library how to borrow or browse this collection. 

Thank you.
