Learn about Writing.

Explore social and moral issues and behaviors.

Become motivated to read on their own.

It is also an opportunity to share and experience and have some fun!!

The Geronimo Stilton Series

You will need to be in quick to borrow one of this series, they are disappearing quickly. The attractive text, with graphics is appealing and the stories are funny with a touch of mystery. The reading age is geared to a 7 to 8 level.

Ghosts Reading in the Library?

What's Hot in OPS Library?

A new series of quick reads for 10 years and older. Cockroach racing; and hiding cockroaches from Mum under the bed. Dying our hair green and finding it won't come out. And much more!

A Great Book Week!

Thanks to children, parents and staff for your efforts and support of OPS's Book Week. Staff read to other classes across the week, a Book Fair was held and Kelcy and Caitlin coordinated and hosted the Dress Up Book Character Parade. Lots of smiles were seen on children's faces!
