Learning and Innovation Centre (LIC)

Learning and Innovation Centre News

The Learning and Innovation Centre is open every second break. All children from year 1-6 can come into the LIC to read, play quiet games, complete puzzles, colour, and draw. Our year 6 student leaders come in and support the other children and help reshelve books. Please see the timetable below.

This term, Prep students will have the opportunity to visit the Learning and Innovation Centre during second break. Our senior leaders will collect them from the Prep gate and walk them to the library. Students must be wearing their lanyard to participate. Each Prep class will have a scheduled opportunity to attend once a week, with a timetable distributed to class teachers. This initiative allows our youngest learners to enjoy engaging activities, become familiar with the library space, and learn the expectations and routines of the Learning and Innovation Centre. At the end of break, the senior leaders will walk the Prep students back to the Prep gate to ensure they return safely to their area.

Reading
Jobs that can be done.
  • Ensure that all books are neat on the shelf with the spines facing out. Are they in the correct alphabetical order or numerical order?
  • Is there anyone who would like you to read to them or maybe they might like to read to you. 
  • Check in with the teacher on duty to see if they have any other jobs to be done. 

Borrowing News

Library Borrowing Reminders

Each class has a weekly borrowing session at the Learning & Innovation Centre (see timetable below). Students must bring a library bag to borrow books.

  • If a student misses their class borrowing time, they may visit the LIC at second break with their library bag and books to return or reborrow.
  • If a book is not finished, it should still be brought back on borrowing day to be reborrowed, rather than left overdue.
  • Students going on early holidays are asked to return their books before leaving.

Responsible Reader Awards

Congratulations to the two classes from last week who had no overdue books. You have worked as a team to support each other.

Outstanding Fees

If you have outstanding fees for lost books from last year, could you please pay these as soon as possible. Your child is unable to borrow until this matter is resolved. If your classroom teacher or child lets you know about an overdue book and you are unsure on the matter, please feel free to email me and we can try and work out a solution.
