Our library is a brightly decorated space packed full of interesting and exciting books for all ages. Titles and series are regularly updated so that your children have access to the best possible books.
We have a great range of fiction, non-fiction books as well as graphic novels available at all interest levels.
Every class has a set library time each week and all students are encouraged to borrow books for literacy and leisure. Waterproof Library bags are essential for taking books home as these protect the books. Hudson Park Library Bags are available from the Uniform Shop. This bag comes strongly recommended as the preferred bag, as it has the correct specifications for protecting the books and will last the entire Primary School life of the student.
Students who do not have a bag may still borrow books, but these are to remain in their tray/pigeonhole in their class. If a library book is lost or damaged, we strongly urge parents to replace the book or cover the cost of the replacement.
Scholastic Book Club
A catalogue is sent home in terms 1,2 and 3 only and parents are asked to order online via LOOP. No cash orders are accepted. Items will be delivered to your child/ren’s class upon arrival.
If you are interested in purchasing items for a gift and would like to collect your order so that your child/ren do not see the items (birthdays, Christmas etc.) there is an option via LOOP Online ordering to select GIFT ORDER. The Librarian will contact you when these orders are ready for collection.
We receive rewards for purchasing items from Book Club that go towards buying new books for the library.
Book Week
Book Week is a big celebration for us here at Hudson Park Primary School every year. Staff and students are encouraged to dress up within the theme for the parade that is held during that week.
Book Fair
Another big celebration in the library is Book Fair. This is held in the fourth term and parents and students are encouraged to view and buy books to help the library earn commission that may be used to purchase new books for the library.
