Community Puzzles

Our community puzzles have been a tremendous success! Students have thoroughly enjoyed collaborating and piecing together intricate puzzles during their free time. These puzzles have not only provided a fun break from academic work but also fostered teamwork and social interaction.

Protecting our Library Resources

We have noticed an increasing number of damaged library resources, particularly novels. We urge all students to be extra cautious when handling library materials. Ensure that books are properly secured and not crushed by laptops or other items when carrying your library books in your laptop bag.

Our library is continually striving to enhance the learning experience, and we have been working with the Year 8 Humanities classes to showcase our new LearnPath resource. These lessons are designed to provide students with access to reliable sources that relating to Viking history and equip students with essential research techniques.
