Our Library is a multi-purpose space where there is likely to be several actvities occurring simultaneously, all day long. The Library is a shared learning space and belongs to the whole school.
As well as a fine collection of fiction and non-fiction books, the Library hosts classes across multiple subject areas, Senior Study periods, TAFE and TVET remote learning, Aurora Virtual High School, English engaged reading periods, and Homework Centre.
There are two bookable spaces that are routinely used by staff undertaking Professional Learning or curriculum planning as well as by small groups of Senior students participating in collaborative learning or focussed research tasks.
At Recess, Lunch, or after school we host regular board game events, the Chess Club, the Minecraft Club, and Parkes High School Code Lab.
Every day after school, the Librarian is assisted by classroom teachers to support students develop positive study habits, complete classwork, prepare for subsequent lessons, or research for and compose their assessment tasks.
It is a place to learn, study, relax, reflect, think, and create.
