We have a team of P7 Librarians who are responsible for the organisation of the Library and the book borrowing/return system and the planning and running of events to spread enjoyment of reading throughout the school.
AIMS FOR 2024-25
- To keep the library in good condition for the whole school to enjoy (tidying, organising, suggesting new books/furniture to purchase).
- To promote reading for enjoyment throughout the school through organising whole school events and sharing books/book-related activities.
