St Charles’ Catholic Primary School Waverley has a varied and extensive collection of over 10,000 items that support the teaching and learning programs of the school’s curriculum.
Two book fairs are held each year to enable families to purchase exciting new releases for enjoyment at home, and all students enthusiastically participate in annual Book Week activities with a fabulous book character parade.
All classes have a borrowing session each week and there is an opportunity for students to enjoy library facilities, books and computers during a lunchtime library club.
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.
