Library Update

End of Year Fun!

It’s that time of year again! As we prepare for the end of the year, student borrowing has now paused, and we’re asking all students to return their library books (class novels excluded).

To make things a little more exciting… there’s a prize for the FIRST class to return all their student borrowing! Who will take out the top spot? The race is on!

Holiday Borrowing Opens Soon!

In the last week of school, holiday borrowing will open for students who:

• Have returned all their books for 2025, and

• Are returning to our school in 2026

   

And guess what? The ever-popular Wrapped Books are back! Borrow a mystery book all wrapped up and discover a surprise story for your summer holidays. Will you find an adventure? A mystery? Something hilarious? You won’t know until you unwrap it!

It’s the perfect chance to stock up on summer reads - with a little extra fun!

Advent Activity Calendars – Coming Soon!

Get ready! In the second-last week of school, students can collect one of our special Advent calendars, designed with daily book-related and Christian-themed activities. They’re a fun way to celebrate the season and keep the reading magic going at home.

Summer Reading Challenge

Also arriving in the second-last week is our Summer Reading Challenge! This challenge isn’t about reading the most books - it’s about finding fun, creative, and meaningful ways to enjoy reading.

Students complete activities, get each one signed by an adult, and then bring their sheet back to school in 2026 to collect a prize. Easy, enjoyable, and perfect for the holidays!

If you have any questions, pop into the library - we’re always happy to help. Happy reading, everyone!
