Eden Park High School Library

We are so pleased to be supporting Mrs Nolan, Eden Park High School's new Librarian, as she builds the new Library.  It has been fun to watch the Library growing here at The Ravensbourne School.



Mrs Nolan has put in a great deal of work and has been supported by some wonderful people, including our Administration team, TRS and EPHS teachers and a fantastic team of Learning Mentors, in creating this amazing new resource.  We had the opportunity to visit the new Library today (thank you to Carl of bandk for hosting our visit)  - pictures to follow!
