Library/Resource Centre

The St John Fisher's Library is a place where the students can access an up-to-date collection of fiction and non-fiction resources. 

Our students also have access to the latest in technology resources within the library.  The main aim of the library is to help foster in our students, a life long love of literacy and learning.  It is a special place within the school that can be used for quiet study and reflection within our vibrant school community.  Parents / carers of Marian students are
encouraged to borrow from our parent section.  Here we hold resources from ‘Toddler Taming' to ‘how to deal with your teenager'.  Also, religious readings and general fiction material is available as well.  For your children's convenience we now have our library catalogue online. Please feel free to browse the Marian School Library Catalogue: https://search.follettsoftware.com/metasearch/ui/65793/

All classes participate in a half an hour library session each week.  Each grade is allowed to borrow books as listed below.
