• ​Nollamara Primary School’s new $1.3 million library opened
• IT integrated library to benefit both staff and students

A new library resource centre at Nollamara Primary School will provide students with the best possible environment for learning.

Education Minister Peter Collier, who officially opened the new $1.3 million building today, said the new centre would significantly benefit both students and staff.

“Computer technology is integrated in the new building making the library a one-stop-shop for students and staff to access reading materials and other resources easily,” Mr Collier said.

“The large resource area includes spaces for teaching and a work area for library staff.”

The new library’s design also complements the red brick heritage style of the school.

The Minister said the building added to the already outstanding facilities at Nollamara Primary School.

“Students are enjoying reading in the new comfortable areas which include bright and modern library furniture,” he said.

“There is a focus on literacy at the school and there are exciting language and writing programs for students. The resources in the new library are certainly helping to strengthen the fantastic work being done at the school.”
