Book Week is an exciting time at St Finbar’s Catholic Primary School Sans Souci which features the annual Book Fair, a parade and combined activities that promote reading and excite the imagination.

The Premiers Reading Challenge is offered every year to encourage avid reading and all students are awarded a participation certificate.

Being an open and inviting space, our library also supports productive activities such as inquiry research, STEM, student and parent workshops and a multitude of co-curricular activities.

Our school library is a precious and highly valued space.

A vibrant hub of learning, stories and exploration, the library provides a welcoming place to meet, collaborate, research, relax and improve information literacy.

It empowers students to be imaginative and critical thinkers, enthusiastic readers, and discerning researchers. Our library is a place where curiosity is nurtured.

Staff foster a culture where reading is encouraged and celebrated, and texts are deeply valued for their ability to help students understand themselves and their world. This ‘reading culture’ contributes positively to students’ intellectual, social, and emotional development.

Our students can access authentic, age-appropriate resources at any time through the Oliver library management system and ACEN digital library’s Sora app.
