At our Cedar campus, the library is more than just a place to borrow books - it's a vibrant, ever‑changing space designed to spark curiosity, imagination, and a love of reading. Throughout the school year, students are welcomed by a range of creative and engaging displays that reflect seasonal themes, curriculum learning, and the rich experiences of our school community. These displays are thoughtfully designed and brought to life by Mrs Georgette El Hajj, our dedicated campus library technician, whose creativity and passion help transform the library into an inspiring environment for all learners.
The purpose of library displays is to: -
Promote reading and engagement
Connect books to students’ real-life experiences
Support curriculum and wellbeing learning
Build a sense of place and community
Encourage imagination and creativity
Showcase the library’s collection
Create a welcoming, inspiring space
The current library display explores the season of summer. This library display brings together the iconic seaside atmosphere of Brighton, during the Australian summer period; however, the inclusion of Slip, Slop, Slap, Seek, Slide reinforces vital safety habits and supports ongoing wellbeing education, showed by beloved characters from Australian children’s books.
The aim is to connect children’s real-life experiences of summer with the stories they encounter in the library, fostering recognition, imagination, and a sense of place.
