On Wednesday, 26th November Ms Reynolds brought her 2nd Year English class to the Library for a research class.
Ms O'Kelly teaches our second years the most efficient and most authoritative methods for researching school projects. Ms O'Kelly directed our students to a fabulous online resource that she created called Stratford College Library hosted on Netvibes, whereby all subjects have a page with relevant sources for their subject.
