Student Library Orientation, Primary School
Library orientation starts next week, 9th-13th September. If you have not added your name and class into the library schedule yet, please do so before Sunday. Also during this week, the library will conduct a magazine survey to a number of Year 4, 5 & 6 students to let us know which titles of magazine they would likely use this year. 

Book Borrowing
Book borrowing will start on 16th September for primary and 9th September for secondary. Most of the new books are now ready for borrowing. They are placed on display rack and book carts for easy access. 

Board Books for KG 1 & 2 and Year 1
Hooray!! New board books are now up on display for our small children to get their tiny hands on when they visit the library. Board books are solely for the use of KG 1, 2 and Year 1. They will not be circulated (check out) to students of other year groups. Teachers and staff may borrow them on a weekly basis but must be returned before Thursday. 


Reminder
