Term 1 has been fantastic in the Library spaces across the school. We have had great conversations about the new books in the collection, enjoyed reading our old favourite series, shared favourite books with others students in the class or grade, and celebrated Harmony Week.
A few helpful links:
- Inaburra Senior Library website: https://inaburraseniorlibrary.weebly.com/
- Inaburra Junior Library website: https://inaburrajuniorlibrary.weebly.com/
Students have been encouraged to borrow books from our Libraries to read and enjoy over the holidays. There is also an option to borrow books on our ePlatform (https://inaburra.wheelers.co/). Students can log in using their normal Inaburra credentials (the first part of their email address) and password. This is a great way to browse new and different texts – they even have an audio-book feature!
