The Centenary Library

The Centenary Library opened in 1997 and has been designed and built to reflect the changing needs of pupils who require information in a wide range and variety of formats. It complements the advances made throughout the school to equip pupils for the challenges of higher education and employment and to prepare them to become adult citizens in the new millennium.

Reading is a life skill and we aim to encourage pupils to use the library from their first days at Hulme. An area of the library has been designed to accommodate lower school pupils and this contains novels and non-fiction books for reading, pleasure, information as well as education.

A computer suite in the library provides access to word processing facilities, information on CD-ROM and access to the internet.
