Welcome to the Learning Resources Centre at Nova Hreod

Your Learning Resources Centre (LRC) is open for browsing at 8.15 til 8.30am.
Students are invited to pop in during lunchtimes at these times;
Monday, Wednesday, Thursday and Friday from 12.55 until 1.30pm
Enrichments will be held on Tuesday lunchtimes so there will not be any Open Access.
Open access during every break time with quiet reading on a Tuesday.
Access is occasionally restricted to support specific activities.
All students are invited to use the LRC after College until 4.15pm on Monday to Thursday and 3.10 on a Friday. A member of staff will be available to support students during these open access sessions.
Today is a great day to learn something new!
Many of you will come into the LRC with your teacher to carry out research and find information on topics you are covering. Students are welcome to come into the LRC and carry on with that research at Open Access sessions, where Mrs Slaven-Holder will be on hand to offer some help if wanted. But if you are suffering from information overload and want to chill out, the LRC is the cool place to be! Browse the shelves for something to tempt you.....
