CSPD school libraries are physical and digital places of inquiry and reading.
They provide access to a range of resources that help students on their learning journey and help inspire purposeful learning.
Through access to our library resources and services, students develop a range of learner dispositions and capabilities to cultivate a culture of curiosity, creativity, imagination and innovation.
John Henry Cardinal Newman Library and Resource Centre
The school library and resource centre is integral to the teaching and learning process. The Newman Centre aids the work of St Pauls teaching staff and ensures each student has equal access to resources.
While the role of the school library remains constant, its design, digital platform, strategies and tools change as ways of teaching and technology changes. The Newman Centre is a flexible learning space, our range of resources are designed to equip students with the skills necessary to succeed in a constantly changing technological, social and economic environment.
