STUDENT ID CARDS

We kindly encourage all students to bring their student ID cards when visiting the library. These cards are helpful for efficiently processing book loans and simplify the photocopying and scanning services available to students.

BOOK WEEK

Between Saturday 16 and Saturday 23 August, the entire school celebrated Book Week. This year, library staff conducted the popular activity ‘Blind Date with a Book’ at both McKinnon Road and East Campus.

Our student’s browsed the blind date books and made their selections based on a few clues. The books were then unwrapped to reveal their surprise read!
