Exam Prep and Exciting Reads
Term 4 is well underway and there’s plenty happening in The Laurence Library - not the least being plenty of spooky deocorations this week!
With WACE exams now underway, students are reminded that we have study guides available to support their revision. Year 11 students are also welcome to browse these resources for a preview of next year’s material. A big thank you to Mrs Sharan Tagore for providing these.
We’ve also had a stack of new books arrive, including several suggested by students! If there’s something you’d love to see on our shelves, there’s a suggestion sheet on Miss Ramm’s desk where you can put forward your recommendations. We carefully consider every suggestion!
Among our new arrivals is Dustin Thao’s You’ve Reached Sam, a New York Times bestseller exploring first love, loss and a touch of magic. Younger readers might enjoy Katie Kirby’s Lottie Brooks series, featuring funny stories and illustrations about surviving high school. With multiple reserves on our only copy of George Orwell’s 1984, we’ve also added two more copies!
I’d also like to thank Eva C and John S for their time and effort as our 2026 Library Prefects. We welcome Ruby Y as our 2027 Library Prefect, and I’m looking forward to working alongside her!
