Students proud of their library collection
An updated library collection is encouraging reading skills at a junior high school on the outskirts of Seaqaqa.
The principal of Nabala Junior Secondary School, Ms Jacquelin Low, thanked the New Zealand High Commission (NZHC) for their donation of fiction and non fiction books for the school library.
The school is classified as a Rural 2 school under Ministry of Education regulations. It has a roll of 120 students but the school could not afford updated editions of reading and reference materials due to limited funds.
