Catalogue

Our new Oliver catalogue allows students and staff to discover a diverse range of resources (text, audio and eBooks) to enhance their studies and personal interests. Our library space has a newly updated selection of both fiction and non- fiction books which are constantly renewed to suit our users’ needs. We also have a variety of boardgames and puzzles. During recess and lunch breaks students can enjoy playing educationally based online games supported by the school’s IT access agreement.


Research

Within the library space, students have access to the schools’ wireless network for research purposes. Library services include access to ClickView.  Used by 6,000 schools, ClickView makes it easy to find short, relevant videos to assist with learning.

Our Library Management System (LMS), Oliver, is available to all via Compass.  This LMS provides extensive online resources facilitated through the Wheelers ePlatform, giving students access to fiction and non- fiction eBooks and audiobooks.  This system also provides the school community information on ways to navigate its way within the physical library space to find a suitable resources.

This helps to develop skills which assist in customising resources needed to carry out research independently and effectively.

2026 sees the continuation of the hugely successful Library Assistants program, as well as introducing our college leadership positions of Library Captain. See the Student Leadership and Awards page for more information about our 2026 Library Captains. These students assist with events, displays, promotions and competitions as well as being guides for our newest students to the college.
