Library Extended Hours a Success

It’s already been a busy start to the term, with the library opening for the first time during the school holidays.

The Library was open in the last week of the holidays, and we had some conscientious students and staff come in to utilise the library space. We anticipate that this will only grow as we progress towards exams in the second part of the year.

Therefore, the library will be open in the last week of the September/October school holidays to cater for students wishing to use the library for study purposes.

Also, it was with great pleasure that the Library hosted Her Excellency Professor Marie Bashir AC CVO, Governor of New South Wales. We took her on a tour of the library facilities and she was incredibly impressed with the library space (she was particularly impressed with the vista in the stairwell over Johnston Oval!) She was also excited to hear about the information and research skills that the library team are developing and supporting in students, as well as the library’s initiatives supporting literacy and reading, being an advocate of literature and writing herself.

Looking forward to another busy term ahead
