After a great deal of anticipation and some delays work has finally begun on our new school hall. The construction company Hanem Group, is trying to work in well with the normal operations and activities at the school in order to minimise disruption and impact. We look forward to seeing the building move to completion in 2010 and are very keen to put this school and community resource to good use.

Canteen
The canteen operates on Mondays and Thursdays of each week. It is run by a committee of the P&C Association and staffed by voluntary workers. Any profit is directed through the P&C to provide resources for the school. Lunch Orders: All lunch orders are to be written on a paper bag with the child's name and class with the money placed in the bag. These orders are placed in a classes basket and the teacher sends the basket to the canteen. Orders are carried back to the classes at lunchtime for distribution. |

Library
Miranda North has a very well stocked library, The provision of a budget annually enables our Teacher/Librarian to maintain excellent current material for the use of students and staff. Library lessons are held at least one day each week for each class. Children are asked to bring a draw string bag in which to carry borrowed library books home. |
