Library News

It is great to start the second term with over 1600 books, videos and magazines available for children to read and enjoy.  Many children took books home to read during the school holidays. All of those books are now due back at school so please encourage your child to return them and choose some more.

The library website also had a lot added to it recently.  There are a number of links to ebooks, online stories and audio books so children can enjoy reading via our virtual library.  Tumblebooks is a particularly good site for younger readers and all children have usernames and passwords to access books in Bug Club. 

We have joined Scholastic Book Club and brochures will be sent home by Monday 30 April so you can purchase books if you would like to. There are several different forms and your child will receive the brochure(s) that are most suitable for their age. Please make out cheques to Scholastic New Zealand or complete the Credit Card payment form.  The current book club orders close on Wednesday 16th of May.  Send completed order forms and payment to the library to be placed in the box for Scholastic Book Club orders. See Carolyn at the library if you have any questions.
