The Junior School library is open during lunchtimes for pupils to read quietly and to borrow books.

Children can to borrow up to 2 books at a time and we ask that they be returned within three weeks. We use the Junior Librarian catalogue system to record details of our book stock and each pupil has a library barcode number that they can use to check the books in and out. Children can borrow both fiction and non-fiction books. We ask that all library books are returned before the end of the academic year in July.

Parent helpers run the school library at lunchtimes.

Currently the library is open between 12:20 and 1:10 on the following days:

The Junior library is not currently open

• Mondays - 
• Tuesdays - 
• Wednesdays - 
• Thursdays - 
• Fridays - 

We would love to be able to open the library every day so if you could help please contact the school office or talk to one of our current library volunteers. 

The fiction books in the library are shelved alphabetically by the author's name. If books by a favourite author are not stocked we would like the children to speak to the parent helper on duty or send a note to the Junior School Office.

If the library is not open then school library books may be returned by putting them into the red Library Book Drop Box which is currently outside the School Office.

Don’t forget the Book Swap Bookcase in Acer Class is also available for children.
