The library is a vital teaching and learning environment for our school community. Everything we do in the library is focused on successful student learning outcomes.
Our vision:
- To enable students to independently choose and use information strategies when selecting resources
- Foster the love of reading and encourage students to be independent in choosing books that are readable, exciting and relevant to their needs and interests
- To provide library services that are flexible, easily accessible to all users and support the development of student literacy in conjunction with teacher programs
- To provide a physical environment that supports teachers in their teaching and students in their learning
East Marden Primary School has a well-resourced library where students can access an extensive range of resources. Students visit the library with their class weekly and can borrow resources to enjoy at home.
The teacher/librarian works in conjunction with classroom programmes particularly the Australian Curriculum – History and Geography across the year levels. The programmes are very much Inquiry/ ICT based.
