Rose Bay High has an ongoing commitment to the Library, reaffirming its place as a valued teaching and learning centre within the school.
Increased Library funding and staffing have ensured a greater number of up to date resources, as well as professionally qualified staff to manage the collection and assist staff and students with their research and recreational needs.
Programs are offered to Grade 7 students in first term to familiarise them with what the Library has to offer and provide basic search skills.
In addition to a wide array of non-fiction resources for class work including books, magazines, videos, DVDs, encyclopaedias, vertical files and others, there are also reading books ranging from picture books and easy reading material through to an extensive young adult fiction collection.
New computers and accompanying software have expanded the students’ research options supplemented by access to a computer lab adjoining the Library.
Library staff provide a welcoming and supportive environment for staff and students whilst the use of informative and eye catching displays provides an engaging physical environment.
Junior students have the opportunity to become Library monitors and parents are most welcome to volunteer their services in the Library.
