Our Learning Resource Centre (LRC) is a vibrant and popular area of the school, providing support to students visiting with a class, within a small group, or as an individual carrying out independent study.

Open from 8:00am to 5:00pm Monday to Thursday and until 3:30pm on Fridays, the LRC offers extensive resources including a wide range of fiction and non-fiction books to suit all reading abilities, graphic novels, newspapers, magazines and a suite of 30 computers with internet access.

Students are able to access the library management programme 'Eclipse' on the school intranet, where they can view their library record and search for books online.
