Change is a Good Thing

If you saw “My Week with Marilyn” based on a week in her life, or rather a week in the life of a young Englishman, you’d know that Michelle Williams was superb as the tortured Monroe. Marilyn Monroe was actually not a bad philosopher. She said, “I believe that everything happens for a reason. People change so that you can learn to let go, things go wrong so that you appreciate them when they’re right, you believe lies so you eventually learn to trust no one but yourself, and sometimes good things fall apart so better things can fall together.” 
The changes in the library over Easter are probably far less dramatic.  First, it’s clear we’ve had a makeover -all external and internal walls were painted. 

 

Secondly, Max Ibrahim and Dave Shenton have paved our little courtyard making an additional area outside in winter for small groups. They did such a great job of the area, we’re looking to enhance it with a few hanging plants and some plant pots if anyone in the community would like to make a donation? Please email us if you have plants to give away.   Deputy Principal, Sue Davidson and Dave Shenton gave the area a test over a hot cuppa.

Mrs Sheppard set the clock on our new interior weather station, so we can be aware of changes to our interior environment. It’s so small you might miss it. Find it on the circulation counter. Remember, for authoritative weather information you can’t go past the Bureau of Meteorology.

April is “Feeling”  month for the NYR, Tom Hanlon decided to try out our “Massage Chair”. If you can’t get down to try it, maybe you can find someone to give you a stress relieving neck massage. We don’t know who enjoys a quick massage more – Staff or Students?

Finally, we have a really big change coming this week. Here’s a clue below but you’ll have to ask Library staff if you think you know.
