Parent Council Resources
The St. Michael’s Parent Council has donated a wonderful collection of books and other resources to our school. The collection is located in the Library. Everyone is invited – indeed, encouraged - to take advantage of these excellent resources. As you can see from the Parent Council Resources document which lists and describes the resources, the main focus of the collection is parenting and family life, with a particular emphasis on Christian faith and faith based values.Contacts
