LearningHub and Library
The LearningHubs (Libraries) at both the Dee Why and Bayview Campuses aim to support the needs of students and teachers in an information-rich world.
LearningHub Spaces
The physical spaces are named using the language of our learning dispositions, linking learning intentions and uses of the Library resources. They are: the Digital Resourcefulness space, Makerspace, Think Tank space, Relational space, Active Inquiry space, Mobile learning space and The Oasis. At Dee Why, the mezzanine level is reserved primarily for use by Year 11 and 12 students and consists of two functional areas, Absorption space and Collaboration space.
The spaces provide students with a springboard to access not only the physical collection of fiction, non-fiction, picture books, graphic fiction and study guides, but also to our extensive collection of online resources including, eBooks, eAudiobooks, online magazines, databases of peer-reviewed and full-text articles, online encyclopedias and a range of other subscription-based learning resources.
