Our school library is a precious and highly valued space.
A vibrant hub of learning, stories and exploration, the library provides a welcoming place to meet, collaborate, research, relax and improve information literacy.
It empowers students to be imaginative and critical thinkers, enthusiastic readers, and discerning researchers. Our library is a place where curiosity is nurtured.
Staff foster a culture where reading is encouraged and celebrated, and texts are deeply valued for their ability to help students understand themselves and their world. This ‘reading culture’ contributes positively to students’ intellectual, social, and emotional development.
Our students can access authentic, age-appropriate resources at any time through the Oliver library management system and ACEN digital library’s Sora app.
At St Christopher’s Catholic Primary School Holsworthy, we engage in reading challenges such as Premier’s Reading Challenge, Literacy Pro and regular literacy sessions.
Our library becomes a centre for lunchtime activities and co-curricular activities, supporting gifted inquiry learning through the supply devices such as Chromebooks.
