Welcome to the New Junior Middle Library

The new Junior Middle Library (JML) contains more than just books. Besides browsing and reading our expanding collection of new books, boys can also come in to play board games or experiment with our latest technology gadgets. At the start of the term we introduced a 3D printer into the space and the waiting list to print a 3D object filled up for the entire term in only a few short days. It has been fascinating to see what objects our boys choose to print! We have recently added a number of other exciting kits such as Little Bits, Makey Makeys and arduinos, plus we have more equipment to come! Boys are using these kits to create simple and complex circuits and inventions outside of class time. We have discovered that our boys are amazing inventors and problem solvers. It shows that the JML is a place of learning, where boys are not only able to consume knowledge but are able to create it as well.
