Library

The library is a hub within the school community that promotes and facilitates a love of reading and learning, building independence in every school community member.

All students come to the library with their class at least once a week to see the new books and resources, browse, borrow and return. Visiting the library is a further opportunity to promote the love of reading, books and technology. Members of our school community will sit, read, comprehend and engage in different texts independently in an authentic way.

Students are able to borrow books on a fortnightly basis to read in their classrooms or take home to read with their families.

During Big Lunch play times, the Library is open for students who wish to access a quiet space to come in to read books, play board games or build with Lego or other construction materials with small groups.

Premier’s Reading Challenge

Students at Aldinga Beach Primary School are encouraged to participate in the Premier’s Reading Challenge. The challenge is to read at least twelve books throughout the year, fill out the student reading record and have each book signed off by an adult. When this is completed, the form can be handed in to library staff. Students who complete the challenge receive an annual award in Term 4.
