Library

The Busselton Senior High School Library is a vibrant space full of resources and activities. We foster literacy of all kinds, helping to create a healthy school community, support culture and encourage creativity. The BSHS Library provides a social space to meet, collaborate, research, learn, share, participate and relax.

During class times the library may be a research lab, a quiet reading room, study space or presentation venue. Before school and during break times the Library becomes something else entirely. There are many opportunities to be creative, connect socially, participate in activities, games, puzzles and competitions or slide into a corner with a book. The Library is the meeting hub for some of the school clubs, including Chess Club, Ready Readers and Knitting Club, and all year groups are welcome.

The Library catalogue is available to students, staff and parents online.
