School Library 中文圖書館
We’re excited to introduce the new school library to support Chinese language learning through reading!
Books for younger students are located in the playgroup room. Books for older students are located on the bookshelf upstairs near the couches.
Students and families are welcome to borrow books and contribute books for others to enjoy.
我們很高興向大家介紹全新的學校圖書館！
它旨在透過閱讀，助力學生們的中文學習。低齡學生的書籍存放在遊戲活動室；年齡較大學生的書籍則位於樓上沙發旁的書架上。
歡迎學生和家庭借閱圖書，也歡迎大家捐贈書籍，讓更多人能從中受益。
