Library 

It has been a busy week at the Senior School. As the maskless routine has been well received by staff and students, and classes are starting their early assessment tasks for 2021 we have gladly welcomed a return to “real” Library work with subject teachers making bookings. It has been pleasing to see how well the remote learning process has aided the use of our collection of both electronic and physical resources.

Junior School classes have been borrowing widely. Our collection of titles per student is very high and the books are well maintained. Miss Welst completed a full stock take last year and we have added some great new resources as well.

Our College Library service is responsive to suggestions and student involvement. While we couldn’t change our lack of face-to-face time last year, this year is starting to look more like pre-renovation service and involvement.

Please feel free to ask questions of us if there are any concerns about your children’s requirements as far as reading or researching goes. Our virtual resources are more numerous than our physical titles and all are selected on the basis of quality. My email address is: msimkin@hamiltoncollege.vic.edu.au.

All the best for the long weekend.
