Welcome!

Welcome to the Learning Resource Centre weekly blog! We are here for our students during this remote working period and will be offering hints and tips on using our e-resources, posting links to new resources and adding some leisure activities.

We love…

• Audible Audiobooks – If you need some time out Audible has free access right now on 100s of titles. Not just for kids – plenty of wonderful classics on here too
