Library News

The Library had a tremendous week celebrating Book Week with the students. The response from the students was fantastic, the participation level was very high and the levels of enthusiasm toward the activities, very positive. There were daily Scavenger Hunts, literacy based activities, class spelling bees, Crack the Code Treasure Chest won by Marcus Woolley and Luca Ciavarella and the SBC prize auction. The boys had a lot of fun partaking in the activities with a little friendly competition to make it interesting.

The Library Team were fantastic in planning and providing these activities. Well done.

Holiday hours

The Library will be open from Monday 19th to Thursday 22nd Sept from 9am – 3pm (23rd Sept Grand Final public holiday). Students are welcome to come to the Library to study. Year 12 students will need to be proactive in making sure they have bound their notes prior to the holidays as the use of the binding machine is very heavy during this time and students could miss out on having their notes bound if they wait until the holidays to arrange.
