The Junior Library of C.R.P.F.
Public School caters to the needs of Junior School students. Its main aim
being-to generate reading interest amongst the students.
This begins with the orientation:
An orientation to the students is given at the beginning. They are told about
how to use the library and the various kinds of books available in different
shelves. The pupils are also made aware about the library rules and how to take
care of the reading materials.
Initially, the children browse
through pictures of the books then gradually reading “easy-to-read-text” books.
The stories that present attraction amongst students like the ‘ Panchtantra’ and the ‘Fairy Tales’ which have world over
recognition are popular amongst the pupils. These stories have academic and
reformer values depicted through respective morals.
By the time they complete their V
class, they are well read with classics like David Copperfield, Oliver Twist
etc. and the books available in Junior Library by current authors like J.K.
Rowling; with special mention of Enid Blyton, Ruskin Bond, Rudyard Kippling,
Lewis Carrol etc.
In order to scale the library
reading various library activities are being held from time to time. Recently a
library quiz was also organized by Primary Department of the school in which
students of classes IV and V participated with full zeal and the audience was
also equally enthusiastic about it.
It was an exciting arrangement
for the students to venture into the book world.
