Library News
This week we welcomed all our students back to our beautiful space. It has been wonderful having the opportunity to reconnect with our regulars, find out how they are, enquire about the books they have been reading, and witness their pleasure in being back in the Library.
The Library has shared in the recognition of National Reconciliation Week. We have gathered many resources significant to indigenous story and experience and together with Mrs Taylor and Mr Saggers, have formed a beautiful display featuring a backdrop created by our students who worked with Rhonda Radley to produce it. We are proud to support the shaping of Australia’s journey towards a “more just, equitable and reconciled nation”.
THIS WEEK'S FREE DOWNLOAD
The weekly free download of audiobook titles continues this week with
"In search of us" and "Serpent & Dove".
Visit www.audiobooksync.com to access and download the titles, and then use your Sora app (see setup instructions below) to keep and listen. Too easy!
