School Library

“The only thing that you absolutely have to know is the location of the library”  

– Albert Einstein 

The library is a very important part of the school and the librarian works closely with teaching staff  and pupils  – to ensure that the stock is kept relevant, up-to-date and supports both the requirements of the curriculum and the recreational interests of the pupils.
