Waimate Centennial School Library

This week we have another selection of new books in the Library. We really do have awesome books in our Library.
Most of the new books this week are about animals. There are two lovely books with a New Zealand flavour - one called 'The Kea' and the other 'Bats'. They both have beautiful photographs.
We also have two new Graphic Novels. These are proving very popular. We have another 'Jimmy Sniffles' adventure.
My favourite this week is the book about New Zealand bats. It was a very interesting read. Come and see it for yourself.

Just a word about the new system that is up and running in the Library.
We are really trying to cut down on our overdue and lost library books. The new system will not allow a child to get another book out if they have one that is overdue. Children will bring a slip home if they have an overdue book asking that either the book is found and returned or $5.00 is paid towards replacing that book.
Today we only have 6 overdue books across the whole school which is fantastic. Thank you for your help.
