Library Page
Welcome to Corpus Christi Virtual Library.
We hope you enjoy some of the wonderful opportunities that are available through our "virtual" library. We have links to authors reading their own books and links and instructions for online library borrowing. We have also included some special interest reading activities and some fun and games. Mrs Spencer has designed some activity Grids for student who are really keen to respond to the books they read in creative and imaginative ways. Help yourself to any of the activities in the Infant or Primary Library Grids.
