The Library

Welcome

The Library is a flexible area at the heart of our school community where all students are welcome. They can pop into the Library before school, during break and lunch or after school to complete homework, use the computers, play a board game or to read for pleasure. New books are ordered regularly to keep up with current trends and students’ interests as well as to complement our school curriculum, including the books we read in our Tutor Read Aloud sessions. 

Opening Times

The Library is open during Break (11.00 – 11.25am), Lunch (1.25 – 2.15pm) and after school (3.15 – 4.00pm) from Monday to Thursday for reading, research, coursework and/or homework.
