Stock up on DVDs and new magazines for the holidays

Interested in photography, soccer, science or motorbikes? The latest editions of Digital Camera Magazine, Four Four Two, Australasian Science and 2 Wheels have landed in the library, so come in and pull up a bean bag and get reading! Don’t forget that we have weekly magazines such as The Economist and New Scientist coming in regularly, so check those out as well.

Year 7 has been back in the library recently, this time working on their Geography Heritage Sites research assignments, where they have been asked to argue for a heritage site of their choosing to be kept on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Library staff have been working with boys to find information in books and using the library’s amazing collection of online resources. We’ve also been discussing finding trustworthy and reliable information on the internet.

We’ve also run a referencing ‘how to’ session, where we’ve taken Year 11 and Year 12 IB Dip and HSC Extension English boys through the subtleties of the art of referencing. More sessions will follow for those who couldn’t make the first session.

Don’t forget that with the holidays coming up. Get in over the last few days of term to get your holiday reading organised. We also have DVDs available that you may borrow.
