Junior School Resource Centre
Welcome to the Junior School Resource Centre, located in the main hallway near the Administration Office. Mr Warwick Norman, our Teacher Librarian, is on long service leave for the Summer Term and I have returned to take his place for that time. I have enjoyed my first week getting acquainted with the new boys and all the wonderful new resources acquired recently. The old boys have made me feel very welcome and have been a great help in showing me where the best books are.
All classes have a borrowing session each week with a library lesson every fortnight but I would like parents to know that books may be borrowed and returned at any time while the Library is manned. Also, parents are encouraged to borrow as well either digital or print books. The digital books are available through Overdrive, which can be accessed through the Scotch Home Page under iLibrary.
The Junior School Resource Centre is a great place for new parents to meet other parents and help out. No previous experience is required and you can attend on a casual basis. We meet to cover books and complete other library jobs first thing on Thursday mornings. Why not drop off your son and come and join our happy group for a coffee or tea next Thursday? If you are interested please contact me in the Library or just turn up.
If you wish to discus your son's borrowing, I am always happy to make recommendations, as reluctant readers are a special interest of mine.
Kaye Turner
Junior School Teacher Librarian
