Library
Overview
Our Library at Eltham North Primary School is a place where children can immerse themselves in the love of reading. We have a well-stocked library with picture books, junior novels, novels, non-fiction and a variety of reference books.
- An environment where children enjoy reading.
- Children learn skills to help them make the best use of the library such as understanding the difference between picture story, fiction and non-fiction books, how they are shelved and how to find a just right book.
- New books are available each week for the students to browse and borrow.
- Each year we welcome authors and illustrators to meet and story tell with the children so they can learn firsthand about literature and illustrations. Our Prep classes and all other classes have fun interacting with the story tellers.
- For Children’s Book Council Australia Book Week each year we have a display of all the shortlisted books up for awards. The children also have a day to dress up as their favourite book characters.
- We have displays based on Events, Public Holidays, Authors and Themes, these are changed frequently throughout the year.
Helen Skerry is our Library Technician who is on hand to support teachers and children use our valuable resources and audio visual resources.
