STM Library

Welcome to the beginning of the school year. I’m looking forward to fun times ahead for 2021! 

We are very fortunate to have such a well-resourced, exciting and inclusive library that promotes a love of literacy for all students. We are constantly updating our collection to have a wide selection of recent, popular and quality texts for borrowing. The library is open at lunchtime on Thursdays, providing a quiet place for children to read, play chess and participate in craft or drawing activities. 

Each class visits the library twice a week. Every Monday, all students are encouraged to borrow. (K-4 require a library bag, an A4 drawstring

 or cloth bag). Books are to be returned each Monday in order to borrow again. On Thursday, Library lessons provide students with opportunities to appreciate literature, develop 21st Century critical thinking skills and become informed citizens. Reading and listening to stories gives our students an opportunity to learn about the world & emotions experienced by characters. It opens up worlds not normally available to be experienced by children. What an adventure! 

If you have any questions, requests or problems with lost/damaged books please don’t hesitate to contact me via email madeleine.reid@cg.catholic.edu.au
