Library

At Barton Primary School we have formed a partnership up with Casey Cardinia Libraries to make sure students, families and teachers get the most out of their library experience. With generous help from the team at Cranbourne Library, Barton PS has been able to establish a solid foundation of fiction, non-fiction and picture story books. Staff at the library will also hold special story times for the students of Barton Primary School and ensure the school library stays well stocked with fun things to read. Another benefit of our partnership with the Casey Cardina Libraries is our ability as a whole school community to borrow large numbers of books directly from the Cranbourne Branch.

If you are interested in joining the Casey Cardina Libraries please see membership form in link below.
