The School Library
The library is stocked with periodicals, newspapers, reference books and an updated index of fiction and non-fiction titles. Books are carefully selected annually by our teachers, school administrators, and our librarian for informative and educational purposes, and selections are offered to the appropriate age groups.
Year-round activities to promote the full use of the school library are held in order to foster the students’ healthy reading habits, improve their use of the English language and other foreign languages, and to encourage students to have an inquisitive mind. One of the school library’s highlighted activities is the Story Time for Key Stage 1 students, where teachers and school administrators read stories for Key Stage 1 children to inculcate a love for reading among Early Years students.
Besides the printed materials, the library also provides computers for students to access information online.
