Our Library 

​Kia ora tatou!

My name is Yvonne Hall and it is my privilege to manage the Sumner School library - a job that I love!

We have an exciting and varied collection of reading material and are always looking to add recommended books to keep our collection relevant and exciting.

So if you have a favourite that you would love to borrow and which we do not currently have, let me know!

​I look forward to seeing you at library time or come and browse at lunch. There are also library competitions, craft activities, colouring and board games to play.  

​See you there!

How do I write a book review? 

Please review a book that you have read and enjoyed!
Type in the title of the book on the Search bar to bring it up.
Click on the ‘Write a Review’ box and write a review. Simple!
Please try to add as much detail as possible. That way other people can see why they should also read the book.

What was the book about?    Why did you like it?   What style is it written in?   What about the characters?   Why do you recommend it (or not recommend it!)?
