Library News

All The library staff at St Peter’s contribute to the selection of the latest books for our students. We have a regular range of titles left by a bookseller once a term and students themselves can request a book of their choice which we endeavour to buy for the collection. Ms  Young and Ms Iddagoda create amazing book displays often featuring new arrivals that inspire our students to borrow.

One popular series is “Robin Hood” by Robert Muchamore with the latest one “War & Peas” ready for our shelves. When Robin Hood’s father speaks out about corruption, he’s framed and thrown into jail. Twelve-year -old Robin finds himself on the run. There is a rising and unrest with the President’s men waging a brutal war in Sherwood Forest. “War & peas”  explores if Robin Hood can withstand the President’s madness in a final confrontation.

Year 7s have been studying poetry and we were delighted to hear that Amreen (7C) won first prize for her poem in the Student Poetry Competition presented by the Independent Schools Victoria as part of its Arts Learning Festival.
