Library Corner

The Library has been bustling with activity during the past month.

Book Club members have attended two fortnightly meetings, sharing book reviews and brainstorming future competitions.

The SRC joined forces with Library Monitors to create 400 purple ribbons to celebrate International Women’s Day on Friday 8th March. A bookmark design competition was also organised by SRC and we are looking forward to seeing the three winning designs printed, laminated and available to students as they borrow in the library. A feature display was mounted in the Library to highlight this very important day in the GEC calendar. It follows on the heels of the display celebrating the International Day of Women and Girls in Science on 11th February.

Library Lovers’ Day, celebrated annually on 14th February, proved popular again this year. Students who took the plunge to borrow a romance novel - “A Blind Date with a Book” - enjoyed Pink Lady chocolate hearts as they dated their books.

The Library continues to encourage student browsing and borrowing during the library’s opening hours which are unchanged from last year:

Monday to Thursday 8:30am to 4:30pm

Friday 8:00am to 4:00pm

The library is open at Recess to Year 12 students and Library Monitors only

Lunchtime opening from 1:00pm onwards (Closed to general access during the fortnightly Book Club meetings)
