Reading Room

The more that you read, the more things you will know.

The more that you learn , the more places you'll go. 

The Yellow Zone Reading Room aims to provide a tranquil and comfortable learning environment for students and staff.

 

Opening Times 

The Reading Room is open every break and lunchtime Monday to Friday and during specific English lessons.

We also have Junior Librarians Club on a Wednesday Reading Room is open for reading, book discussions and creative writing.

 

Layout

At the request of the students, books are ordered by genre, with each genre having a different coloured sticker. All our Accelerated Reader books are clearly labelled and displayed by ZPD.  All non Accelerated Reader books are sorted alphabetically by author’s surname. We also have a wide range of non fiction books available.

Students can borrow two books at any one time. Unless renewed, these must be returned within two weeks.
