Whangarei Heads Community School Library Re-Opens

Rick Miller from Whangarei Heads Community Library Inc

Good News:
the Library will reopen to the Community this Saturday 23 March 2024 at 10am and we look forward to both our old and new friends coming back to the library.
We have lots of new books as well as a fresh selection of Whangarei Public Library Books on offer. Don’t forget to check out our selection of magazines covering Fishing, Rugby, NZ Geography to name a few.

We also now have Walking New Zealand - a monthly magazine covering walking and cycling trails throughout New Zealand.

The library is looking great but we were disappointed that it had to be closed for longer than we had expected. It is a major refurbishment with a new roof, exterior paint and replacement doors and windows as well as sanded and varnished native timber floors which look really great. The ramp has been upgraded to meet the current standard.

The Tradespeople have done a fine job and our thanks go to the Ministry of Education, School Board of Trustees and Principal and others who have overseen the project.
Our building will be in fine shape to go through into its 100th year of being built in 2025.

Opening times and arrangements have had to be changed to accommodate OSH and other requirements regarding access to the School grounds and buildings during school time.

All members of the Public must sign in at the office whenever being on school grounds during school opening times.
Library Public Opening Times:
Monday to Friday: 1.30pm - 4.30pm (sign in required at School Office )
Saturdays: 10am – 12 Noon
School Holidays: Monday to Saturday: 10am – 12 Noon
Closed Public Holidays.
