Reading Crusade


The Reading Crusade has now officially finished. Last week saw the fantastic prizegiving event at Silks, Addington Raceway. Five Crusaders attended and answered questions, from the serious stuff, like: Who is your arch team enemy? To the ridiculous - Who cries the most?

Connect Programmes Term Two 2010

Music to my ears


These days it is rare to hear the words “Shhhh this is a Library!” Today’s libraries are vibrant places with listening posts, CD’s, tapes and many books on music. You can also discover music online and experiment with making your own music using Super Dooper Music Looper software in the Learning Centre.


Information literacy – Beyond Google


Finding information is easy when you have the right skills. The Learning Centre can provide help with lessons on search words, using search engines and how to use book marking sites such as “delicious”.
