Brisbane Central State School staff recognize our key role in supporting and enhancing the students recreational reading, promoting a reading culture as well as student learning and discovery.
Our library includes a diverse and large collection of children's literature including picture books, fiction chapter books and non-fiction for the upper and lower school.
The library is open Monday to Friday, for class-time borrowing.
We encourage students to have a waterproof library bag with their name on it, to assist with borrowing and returning of books.
We are looking forward to a new library within the near future, which caters for a variety of group setting and learning areas.
